Walk & Talk Therapy | Carlsbad and San Clemente

Movement can help conversations flow more naturally, soften pressure, and make space for thoughts and feelings to unfold in a different way, so I offer walk and talk therapy sessions in San Clemente and Carlsbad.

I am in-network with most insurance companies, and I can also provide a superbill for my out-of-network clients and help with reimbursement. I am currently in network with:

Walk & Talk Therapy with Kelsey

What's different about walk & talk therapy?

There’s something about being in motion that shifts how we process. Some people find it easier to open up when they’re not making direct eye contact the whole time. Being outdoors can also support regulation as your body has more space to breathe, settle, and move through what’s coming up. Walk and talk therapy can be especially helpful if you:

Feel stuck or overthinking in traditional sessions
Have a lot of energy or restlessness in your body
Find it easier to talk when you’re not sitting still
Want to integrate movement, nature, and mental health
Are navigating stress, relationship dynamics, or big life transitions

What does a walk & talk session look like?

We’ll meet at a predetermined outdoor location and walk at a comfortable pace. There’s no pressure to “power walk” or perform, this is your space. We can slow down, pause, sit, or adjust as needed. As with any session, I’ll stay collaborative and curious, helping you make sense of your experiences and connect back to your values and intentions.

Locations are chosen with privacy and accessibility in mind. Please note, confidentiality cannot be guaranteed.
I offer walk & talk sessions mainly in San Clemente at this time, and have limited availability for Carlsbad.
Sessions are 50 minutes.
We can combine walk and talk sessions with in-person or virtual sessions.
We’ll have a backup plan for weather (virtual or in-office).
This format may not be the best fit for every situation—we can talk through what feels right for you.

Therapy doesn’t have to look one specific way to be meaningful. If the idea of moving, being outside, and talking side-by-side feels like a better fit, this might be a good place to start. My private pay fee is $205 and I am In-Network with:
