At Walk and Talk Psychology we work in an outdoor space. Our psychology sessions take place whilst walking along the beach or foreshore, or sitting under the shade of a tree. If you prefer a unrushed atmosphere, tailored to your needs and pace, this type of counseling may be helpful for you. The relaxed, calming environment and the light exercise enables more creative problem solving and and enhanced mental flexibility. I am passionate about teaching people how to recognise and to regulate their emotional responses, develop a positive sense of self, problem solve situations, and build their resilience for the future.
Connecting psychology with the outdoors. You may benefit from outdoor sessions if you are very nervous or anxious about going to psychologist. Outdoor counselling is also helpful for active people who have difficulty focusing or sitting still for a long time. Play-based counselling can also take place in a quiet playground with younger children.
Sometimes people are looking for counselling in a less formal environment. I have found that young people, in particular, enjoy the experience of movement while talking, and sometimes feel more comfortable talking side-by-side, rather than sitting face-to-face in a clinical setting. Perth is the perfect place to combine psychology with the outdoors.

I draw on different therapy styles, tailoring the strategies for your needs. As a trained Circle of Security facilitator, I also draw upon these skills to strengthen family connections. Aways goal focused, with a straight-forward yet compassionate approach. Life can be hard, and we all need the momentum to keep moving forward.
