Walk & Talk Therapy

Walk and Talk Therapy is where I literally walk alongside you in your personal journey. We meet in nature and walk through emotions and experiences together. You are not alone in this quest of life. Nature and movement have been found to have restorative benefits by:-Feeling more free to release emotions when walking side-by-side instead of face-to-face
-Increasing mind and body awareness
-Decreasing overwhelm and worry
Nature supports emotional and physical regulation, mood, self-esteem and physical health, so it just makes sense to incorporate it into our therapy session!Physical movement during sessions encourages psychological movement, and can even accelerate client breakthroughs.The endorphins that exercise produces has a known positive impact on mental health.

Walk and talk therapy can help treat issues such as:

-Anxiety disorders
-Depression
-Self-esteem Issues
-Life transitions
-Stress
-Anger
-Bereavement

*Walking paths will be selected in the West Monroe/Monroe area.

My Approach:

My first priority is building the therapeutic relationship to assure you feel safe and comfortable to begin (or continue) your healing and growth journey.Through my own journey both personally and professionally, I know the consequences that come from striving for perfection (and the resulting burnout and loss that accompanies it). In a world that focuses on perception, perfection, and self-promotion, we need to
find the courage to be vulnerable and show our authentic selves unapologetically. I offer a space that promotes and encourages self-compassion, forgiveness, and grace.
My areas of support include:-Anxiety
-Depression
-Childhood trauma
-Life-transitions
-Women issues
-Parenting support
-Work and school stress
-Boundary setting and relationships
-Self-compassion
-Shame resilience
I use techniques from a wide variety of modalities so that together, we can identify and process areas of discomfort, practice self-regulation and coping skills, and reframe negative thought patterns. The modalities include but are not limited to Client Centered Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Mindfulness all from a faith-based perspective.

Let's Work Together!

Whether you prefer to meet in nature or virtually, I am here to support you! If you are ready to make changes in your life and get "unstuck", let's work together to make that happen!

Thanks!

I look forward to working with you!
