Outdoor Therapy

Outdoor therapy is a professional mental health service that takes place in natural settings instead of an office. Sessions are grounded in evidence-based approaches and blend talk therapy with the restorative effects of being outside.

Outdoor therapy includes the same depth, structure, and clinical care as traditional office-based therapy. The main difference is the setting. Rather than sitting indoors, we may walk on a trail or sit by the ocean while we talk. The natural environment often helps people feel more at ease, connected, and grounded.

While sessions are designed to take place outdoors, I do offer Telehealth as a backup option. If the weather makes it unsafe to meet outside, or if a client makes arrangements in advance to meet virtually, we will shift the session online. I will always make sure we have a plan in place so you are never left without support.
