RWT is adding movement through running and/or walking to therapy to create change of perspective, confidence, and move from stuck places mentally and physically.

EVERYONE. We begin at your pace. If you have never run before, then we walk. If you are a runner, then we run or walk. We move at a pace that is comfortable to hold a conversation at. If you have limitations or challenges with movement; we begin with sitting in the office and discussing how we can add movement into therapy. We work with challenges

RWT works by activating our central nervous system into a space of activation or rest. We are able to reconnect to our body and open our mind to new thought patterns, coping mechanisms, and feel more confident and empowered. Moving in nature allows us to feel grounded and activates natural optic flow which opens us to new awareness of our thoughts and behaviors. Moving side by side allows for synchrony or feeling coregulated together as challenges are discussed.

RWT session begins in the office with a choice of Run, Walk or in office based upon client need mind/body need for the day. If walk/run, can choose from several route options from my office that will last up to 40 minutes. Upon returning to the office, we will stretch, reflect and schedule next appointment for 5 minutes to end the time.

If an in-office appointment is requested, we begin with a mindfulness movement exercise to become grounded and raise awareness of the body.

A couple of additional notes about RWT:

-RWT is conducted outdoors primarily at this time. This does mean that weather conditions are always considered. RWT will not occur when the temperature drops below 30°F or is above 100°F.

-RWT is not a run coach or training session. Any personal goal of running a particular distance or race is discussed though not focused on in therapy.
