Walk and Talk Therapy

Nature can be deeply restorative-movement and fresh air often help clients process emotions in a grounded, gentle way. Walk and talk sessions combine traditional therapy with the healing power of nature and also start the process of implementing new habits in an embodied way.

Sessions take place on a pre-selected walking path and are available to established clients as part of ongoing therapy. (Knoxville only).

45 minutes $250

60 minutes $275

90 minutes $350

Mountain Heart Wellness is an out-of-network provider and does not bill insurance directly. This allows me to offer a more personalized, integrative approach to care without the restrictions often imposed by insurance companies.

Payment is due at time of service. If you would like to seek reimbursement, I can provide a superbill — a detailed receipt you may submit to your insurance company for possible out-of-network benefits. Please note that reimbursement, if any, is determined by your insurance provider, and all communication about claims is between you and your insurance company.

For Tennessee residents, sessions are conducted online via a HIPAA secure platform. You will be given a link to connect prior to our scheduled session time.

For established clients who are Knoxville residents, or will be in the Knoxville area, may elect to do walk and talk sessions at a pre-determined location.

What Integrative Therapy Is

Integrative therapy at Mountain Heart Wellness is a holistic approach that honors the connection between mind, body, and emotional well-being. Sessions may include traditional talk therapy combined with education and strategies related to movement, nutrition, stress management, and sleep — all within the scope of mental health treatment.

This approach is designed to support clients in creating sustainable lifestyle and mindset changes that enhance emotional balance, resilience, and overall health.

What Integrative Therapy Is Not

Integrative therapy does not replace medical care, nutrition counseling, or fitness training. I do not diagnose or treat medical conditions, prescribe medication, or provide individualized nutrition or exercise plans beyond general wellness guidance.

Clients are encouraged to maintain regular care with their medical providers, and I am happy to collaborate with other professionals as part of a whole-person approach when appropriate.

Walk & Talk sessions take place outdoors and incorporate gentle movement as part of the therapeutic process. These sessions are not fitness training or physical therapy, but rather a way to support emotional processing, stress reduction, and grounding in nature.

Integrative therapy at Mountain Heart Wellness is a mental health service informed by mind–body science. It is not intended to replace medical, psychiatric, or nutritional care.
