*UNIQUE: TALK & WALK

Looking for some peace of mind that goes beyond the therapist’s chair? The solution could be found in ‘Talk & Walk”. Now, K&R Counselling is providing a new kind of therapy that combines talk therapy with physical exercise. K&R Counselling has taken therapy off the couch and into the great outdoors.
“I meet you. We do our session. It’s just much more convenient,”

What is Walk and Talk Therapy?

I work with clients to reinforce mental health, not mental illness. I often encourage clients to join me in a walk around local parks or quiet streets: a natural, holistic approach to releasing endorphins and getting the creative, problem solving juices flowing. What better way to fight off depression and isolation than to walk with a therapist? I call this “getting out the chair and thinking out of the box”, and hope you’ll give it a try. Of course, I’m happy to meet with you in my office in Charlton Road, when it’s more convenient.

Many of my clients come to me struggling with depression, anxiety, the stress of town and city living and of course… family issues. The act of opening one’s self up while walking through local parks and along quiet side streets, somehow creates an environment of possibility and change.
I’ve seen this process work amazing results with my clients. Yes, it is unique, just like the clients I work with. I am very enthusiastic of this dynamic therapeutic process and encourage you to give it a try.

What do you do when you have bad weather?
I have an office in the South Ward area of Weston-S-Mare when the weather is bad. But I’m always surprised at how reluctant my clients are to go inside. We will either re-schedule or grab our coats and carry on. IT'S ALWAYS THE CLIENT'S CHOICE.

Is this a cardio workout?
No. This is slow to moderate walking, NOT running or even fast walking. There is nothing physically strenuous about the session. But will you feel better after a 50 minute walk? YES.

Typical locations?
Many seem to enjoy sessions in many of Weston’s parks. Other popular routes are along the sea front, Weston Woods, and Uphill. Some choose a route near their work or home, along a quiet side street.

Typical times?
Your choice, based on availability. Some choose a session before work. Many choose a time around their lunch hour or after work. One of my main goals is to make this as convenient as possible. If getting to your therapy appointment is just another hassle – why do it?
