Coaching Outdoors

Feeling overwhelmed by the demands of everyday life? Do you crave peace, clarity, and a deeper connection with yourself and nature? At Earth Coaching®, we believe that true transformation happens when we step outside, breathe deeply, and let nature guide us.

At Earth Coaching, the heart of what I offer is grounded in connection – to yourself, to what really matters, and to the natural world around us. Coaching outdoors is a gentle but powerful way to support your wellbeing, especially if you're living with chronic illness or navigating neurodivergence.

Nature has a way of calming the nervous system, lifting the fog, and helping us feel more present. When we step outside – even just for a short while – we begin to move differently, think differently, and feel more resourced. That’s why this approach fits so naturally with the values of Earth Coaching: it’s holistic, person-centred, and honours the mind–body connection.

Whether you're walking along a coastal path or just sitting by a tree, nature holds space in a way that can be deeply restorative. When combined with coaching, it becomes a space for real change.

Modern life can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re living with chronic illness or navigating neurodiversity. Sometimes, sitting still in a room – even virtually – can make it harder to open up or feel grounded. That’s why I offer something a little different: coaching outdoors, wherever you are.

Our outdoor coaching sessions take place in some of Southend’s most beautiful and tranquil locations, offering you the perfect environment to explore your inner landscape and find the balance you seek. Whether you’re navigating stress, burnout, overwhelm, or simply seeking a deeper connection with yourself and the natural world, Earth Coaching® offers a unique approach that blends the healing power of nature with compassionate, personalised support.


I also offer a more flexible approach, where you can join a Nature Walk and Talk by phone, which gives more autonomy to you - you can book your session as a Nature Walk and Talk but, if you arrive on the day with low energy or pain, you will always have the option to join via Google Meet.

  • What is walk and talk coaching?

    It’s exactly what it sounds like. We both head outdoors – you in your part of the world, me in mine – and connect over the phone, with earphones in, while we walk in nature. Whether that’s along a coastal path, through a city park, or just around the block, the combination of gentle movement and natural surroundings often helps thoughts to flow more freely.

    It’s coaching, but not as you know it.

    This walk-and-talk approach is designed to feel lighter, calmer, and more natural – while still supporting deep insight and meaningful change. You don’t need to be super fit or head out on a long hike. This is about meeting yourself where you are – emotionally and physically.

  • Why nature?

    Research shows that immersion in nature can reduce stress, ease anxiety, improve mood, and support clearer thinking. Just being outside – hearing birdsong, feeling the breeze, noticing trees and sky – has measurable effects on our nervous systems and mental wellbeing.

    For many of us, nature offers a kind of steadying that’s hard to find elsewhere. When combined with coaching, it can be a powerful tool for growth and healing.

    And it doesn’t need to be somewhere far from home or a great trek up a hill (unless you would like to do that). Simply sitting in your garden, on a park bench, on the grass in a space nearby or at your local beach, short bursts of nature can make us more grounded, present and improve mental health.

  • Who is this for?

    I work with people navigating chronic illness, neurodivergence, and life transitions – those who may not feel at home in typical coaching spaces. Coaching outdoors offers more space (literally and emotionally), fewer walls, and the chance to move at your own pace.

    You might choose this approach if:

    You're craving more flexibility and ease in your support.

    You feel stuck and want to shift perspective – quite literally.

    You thrive in or feel calmed by natural environments.

    You're looking for a different way to access coaching – one that honours your body, energy, and way of being.

Why Choose Outdoor Coaching?

Who Can Benefit?

Outdoor coaching allows you to step away from the noise and distractions of daily life and immerse yourself in nature’s calming influence. The fresh air, natural light, and peaceful surroundings provide the perfect backdrop for deep reflection, creative problem-solving, and personal growth. This is particularly beneficial for neurodivergent and chronically ill individuals, including those with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia, high sensitivity (HSP), and chronic conditions like chronic fatigue syndrome and chronic pain.

For neurodivergent individuals, the sensory-rich environment of nature can help reduce the overwhelm often experienced in traditional settings. The natural world offers a calming, non-judgmental space where you can process thoughts and emotions at your own pace. For those with chronic illnesses, the flexibility of outdoor coaching allows for pacing, with the opportunity to move and rest as needed, ensuring that the sessions are both restorative and empowering.

Our outdoor coaching is particularly beneficial for neurodivergent and chronically ill individuals. Neurodivergent individuals often find the natural environment soothing and less overwhelming than traditional settings, which supports sensory processing and emotional regulation. For those living with chronic illnesses, the flexibility of outdoor coaching allows for a gentle, paced approach that respects your energy levels and physical needs.

Did you know…

Spending just 15 minutes a day in nature is all you need to improve your mental wellness, physical wellbeing, enhance mood, and aid with concentration?

If you work from home, and spend lots of time using a screen, an outdoor coaching session, where you pop in your headphones and get outdoors can reduce eye strain and back ache too. For those who find face to face or video calls overwhelming, this method of coaching may be easier for you.

If you are unsure about whether this method of coaching is for you, please ask about it in your Discovery Session or your next coaching session and we can chat about whether this could work for you.
