Mental Health Therapists: Join Us on Wednesday, March 13th, 2024

from 11 AM - 12 Pacific Standard Time

​

Expanding therapy beyond the traditional office setting offers many benefits for both the client and the therapist. Walk and talk therapy is becoming more common as research continues to show the benefits of time in nature and physical activity on mental well-being. 

​

Upon completion of this webinar you will:

1. Understand 3+ benefits and risks of walk and talk therapy

2. Receive an outline to implement walk and talk therapy within a therapy practice

3. Understand best practices for consent, screening for client match, billing, and liability within the walk and talk format​

 

Common questions therapists ask about walk and talk, that we will address, include:

• Where can I meet my clients?

• What are the benefits and risks?

• How do we approach confidentiality when working outdoors?

• How do I know when a client is a good match for this format?

• Can I bill insurance for walk and talk sessions?

• What will my liability insurance think?

• What theoretical orientations work well outdoors?

• What do I need to do in order to be prepared to integrate this into my practice?
