Wandering counseling will involve moving from town to town in the San Luis Valley, visiting a different community park each day for youth counseling sessions with a licensed counselor. Our journey will take us from Crestone to Moffat, then to Monte Vista, and finally to Del Norte.

At Wandering Counseling, we firmly believe in the transformative power of nature for enhancing mental well-being. Our innovative approach involves setting up a tent right in the heart of a community park, seamlessly integrating the healing essence of nature into our counseling sessions with youth.

Teaming up with Mother Nature, we’ve crafted a magical synergy that elevates mental health and fosters personal growth! By infusing nature into our counseling sessions, clients experience a breath of fresh air, a journey of self-discovery, and a sprinkle of holistic wellness.

Merging play-based therapy with nature-based therapy forms a mighty therapeutic duo, blending the best of both worlds. Here’s a sneak peek at how play-based therapy can rock the nature-filled counseling scene:

Dive into Reflection

Explore the wilderness for introspective activities like journaling reflections, meditation, or deep discussions. Encourage children to delve into their inner thoughts amidst the breathtaking backdrop of nature. Engage in physical activities inspired by nature, like mimicking animal movements or creating art using natural elements as a backdrop.

Nature Walks and Exploration

Enhance therapeutic sessions by incorporating elements of nature through engaging activities such as scavenger hunts, sensory walks, and cloud gazing, fostering a deeper connection between children and the natural world. Enrich the nature therapy experience with a touch of adventure, introducing elements like jungle gyms, Tarzan swings, and quests. This blend aims to enhance self-confidence, resilience, and teamwork within the serene backdrop of the outdoors.

Nature’s Playground

Imagine idyllic outdoor play areas ensconced in the embrace of nature - envision lush forests, picturesque meadows, and vibrant gardens - adorned with a plethora of toys, art supplies, and various engaging elements. Immerse yourself in a realm of sensory delights, imaginative expeditions, and boundless creativity.

Nature’s Playtime Magic

Immerse children in the enchanting realm of play by encouraging them to unleash their creativity with natural elements. Picture sticks and stones metamorphosing into fantastical creatures, or miniature sand and dirt kingdoms that reflect their vivid imaginations.
