Walking & Talking Counselling

Counselling doesn’t always have to take place indoors, sitting face to face. If this feels uncomfortable for you, Walking and Talking therapy offers the chance to step outside, move at your own pace, and talk in a more relaxed, natural setting.

Many people find that walking side by side feels less intense and helps conversations flow more easily. The gentle rhythm of walking, combined with fresh air and the calming presence of nature, can ease stress, reduce anxiety, and support emotional wellbeing.

Being outdoors can also bring a sense of space and perspective — helping you to process thoughts and feelings in a different way. Whether we walk quietly or with more energy, the pace and focus are always guided by you.
Walking and talking therapy offers a flexible, grounding alternative to traditional counselling, supporting both body and mind while we explore what matters to you.

I can highly recommend Anita. She gave great support to my daughter in helping her to understand and cope with her severe anxiety. She was also very supportive of us as parents and identified underlying issues that have given us a clear direction forward. Very easy to talk to and a great listener.

Parent

Anita has supported many children in our school with their emerging and wide-ranging social, emotional and mental health needs. She is experienced and well respected in her work. Anita is able to draw upon many approaches, such as talking and drawing therapy, lego therapy and laughter yoga. This support has been invaluable to the children and their families. She has really made a difference and is highly recommended as a practitioner.

Headteacher

Being a man, it is hard sometimes to talk about my feelings. I have been told that I internalise my feelings, but Anita changed my life. Her calm voice and understanding turned my life around. I recommend her!

Client

I have used Anita on occasions for my child’s drawing and talking sessions, Anita has always been very professional, kind, and a breath of fresh air. My child has made excellent progress from these sessions. I would 100% recommend Anita and the drawing and talking to anyone who would like their child to have sessions that may not feel talking is the easiest option.
