Run Walk Talk®

Now offering Run Walk Talk® sessions as the only certified Run Walk Talk® therapist in Tucson!

Tired of sitting for work all day, and don’t want to sit for therapy, too? We can enjoy the beautiful Tucson weather and scenery while we have our session walking or using physical movement outside instead! The fall weather is cooling down, making it the perfect time of year to engage in walking sessions outside.

What is Run Walk Talk®? Run Walk Talk® is therapy that includes movement, such as running and walking as the name implies, but can also include other types of movement that can be tailored to your needs. Please do not feel intimidated by the name—Kim is not a “runner” or athlete, so sessions are conducted at a comfortable walking pace, interspersed with periods of seated discussion as needed.

How might Run Walk Talk® help you? Run Walk Talk® sessions can address:

  • Mood and nervous system regulation, including the stress response, along with the benefits of being out in nature

  • Focus, which may be especially helpful to those with ADHD/are neurodivergent

  • Triggers, as engaging in movement may help with processing the emotional and nervous system response associated with triggers

  • Deepening therapeutic work by using gentle movement for integrating the session content—it is surprising how differently we show up when movement is included!

There is no additional charge to participate in Run Walk Talk® and Run Walk Talk® sessions are billed the same as standard individual therapy sessions ($150 for 55 minutes). Sessions are typically conducted in the lovely Civano neighborhood where Kim’s office is located, and are contingent on the local weather. Run Walk Talk® can be integrated into a treatment plan along with other therapies, such as typical talk therapy and ART, and clients can decide when and if they would like to engage in Run Walk Talk® as part of their sessions; Run Walk Talk® likely will not be a part of every session.
