Grief and Loss
I lost my mother last year, and I have struggled to get through the loss. She was my best friend, and I have found it difficult to have space to continue to discuss my feelings, so I started walk and talk therapy with Ascend. It has been liberating to have a safe place to bring up all of my feelings about losing my mother. It has allowed me to both celebrate her life and grieve when I miss her.

Individual
I was in couples therapy with my wife, but we weren't making progress. I started going to Ascend for individual work, and it catapulted the therapy I was doing with my wife into another realm. It was immensely helpful with work on understanding myself so I could effectively communicate and it helped me understand my wife better, too.

Integration
I had been attempting to integrate a profound altered state experience and found it stifling to be indoors for therapy. I have been going to Ascend for integration work and the difference was night and day. I needed to be in nature, as it has helped me find meaning in my experience that I wasn't able to access before. My connection to nature and everything else in our world has deepend from the integration work I am doing in walk and talk therapy.

Turned a Corner
"Working with Ascend has been pivotal in my life. I have finally been able to map out the goals I have after uncovering the parts of myself that were getting in the way of figuring out what is important to me."

Support
"I have been in therapy off and on throughout my life when I felt I needed support. I always felt supported in those times, but with Ascend, I got much more than support, I really learned about who I am and what I want out of life, and most importantly my areas of strengths that helped me on the path I am pursuing that reflects what I am passionate about."

Strides
"I Walk and Talk with Ascend to save time by exercising and getting my therapy in at the same time. I loved being outside as a kid, but I am mostly indoors for work and my hobbies. It has been deeply meaningful to me to be outside and explore my feelings. I feel grounded and always feel so much better afterwards. What a gift! Thank you, Jane!"

Overcoming Fear and Anxiety
"I was being stalked by a former partner outside of my work. I found it difficult to go outside and feel safe. Walking outside during therapy helped me overcome my fears and feel like I had more control than I did before."

Parenting
"I felt enmeshed in my children's lives. I couldn't separate my own life from theirs, as I seemed to be their main source of providing all of their needs. It affected my relationship with them both. In Walk and Talk Therapy I have learned how to emotionally support them more by over-parenting them less and my relationship and listening skills have created a much stronger bond with them."

Flexibility
"I was skeptical about exercising while in therapy, but I don't have time for both. I was told by a friend about Ascend. I didn't realize that I needed to be outside more and how much walking while in therapy has made it easier to talk and dive into topics I never did with my therapist at his office."
