Walk and talk therapy online training

Walk and talk therapy training

A dynamic and experiential course lead by two experienced, accredited CPCAB tutors. 

How we work:

Within this course we will employ a wide range of teaching approaches ranging from large and small group discussion; creative methods; somatic awareness and use of nature based metaphor to engage learners and equip them with the resources to develop and practice news skills.

The course covers the following aspects:

• Time for you to reflect on your own relationship with nature.
• The psychology of working outdoors (biophilia).
• Looking at how research backs this approach.
• How to contract for this work (you will start producing your own contract and information sheet).
• How to work ethically and safely in this area.
• Ideas for carrying out the work, directly using the outdoor space creatively.
• An opportunity to explore how to adapt your current ways of working to incorporate walk and talk therapy and a chance to share ideas with other counsellors. 

Who is it for?

Qualified counsellors (and those in training) with an interest in taking their work outside.

(Please note: trainee counsellors will still need a formal qualification to work as counsellors).

Time and date: 

This is a five-hour online CPD course.

Friday 3rd September from 10am - 3pm.
