About
Paula Yanis
As a professional Counsellor, I believe in the transformative power of therapy to foster healing, self-awareness, and personal growth. My approach is deeply rooted in mindfulness and person-centred therapy, ensuring that every session is tailored to the unique needs, strengths, and goals of my clients.
I integrate traditional talk therapy with the grounding and calming effects of nature, offering a unique therapeutic experience that extends beyond the confines of a room. Walking therapy and outdoor sessions provide a powerful way to connect with the present moment, ease stress, and gain new perspectives in a relaxed and natural setting.
With a warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental approach, I create a safe space where individuals can explore their emotions, build resilience, and develop meaningful strategies for personal well-being. Whether in a traditional setting or through the therapeutic benefits of movement and nature, my focus is on empowering clients to find clarity, strength, and balance in their lives.
Walk and talk counselling therapy blends traditional therapeutic techniques with the benefits of movement in an outdoor setting, creating a relaxed space that fosters introspection, creativity, and emotional well-being. By allowing clients to set the pace and direction, this person-centred approach not only enhances comfort but also serves as a powerful metaphor for personal growth, reinforcing resilience and confidence in navigating life’s challenges.
While walk and talk therapy can be highly beneficial, it may not suit everyone’s needs or preferences. Clients can choose alternatives such as seated conversations in a quiet outdoor setting, virtual therapy via Zoom or Telehealth for flexibility, or traditional in-studio sessions for a structured and private environment. These options ensure therapy remains accessible and tailored to individual comfort and preferences.
Creative therapy provides a dynamic and expressive approach to counselling, incorporating art, writing, movement, or other creative techniques to support emotional healing and self-discovery. These sessions offer an alternative to traditional talk therapy, allowing clients to explore thoughts and feelings in a non-verbal, intuitive way. Whether through painting, journaling, or guided visualization, creative therapy can help reduce stress, enhance self-awareness, and unlock new perspectives. This approach is particularly beneficial for those who find it difficult to express emotions through words alone, offering a safe and supportive space for personal growth and transformation.
