TALK THERAPY

This therapy also equips you with practical tools to handle daily challenges and promotes your overall well-being.

Walk Talk Therapy is exactly what it sounds like - therapy while walking. Research has shown that walking while exploring deeper emotions and experiences can be a useful way to gain understanding, self-awareness, and relief.
