Walk and Talk Therapy in Norwich
What is Walk and Talk Therapy?
Walk and talk therapy is a form of outdoor counselling where we explore your experiences while walking in nature. It blends the proven benefits of psychotherapy with the grounding effects of physical movement and natural surroundings.
Rather than sitting face-to-face, we walk side-by-side – a setup that many clients find more comfortable and less intense. It’s a supportive, collaborative experience, led at your pace. This is not exercise-focused or rushed – it’s about emotional exploration in a setting that fosters calm, connection, and mental clarity.
Why Choose Outdoor Therapy?
Whether you’re navigating anxiety, low mood, or life changes, stepping outdoors can offer a powerful shift in perspective.

- Encourages Openness: Moving together creates a relaxed, informal dynamic that helps conversation flow.
- Supports the Body-Mind Connection: Light activity boosts endorphins and blood flow, reinforcing the therapeutic process.
