The Nurture Field positions horticultural therapy and counselling as an alternative, affordable therapy option for people of all ages to access via self referral, GP’s, psychiatrists and local councils.

Across our locations, we provide group and 1-2-1 sessions, after school clubs, workshops and holiday activity days. We can deliver group and 1-2-1 support across South Powys and Swansea area in schools, colleges, care homes, support centres and where appropriate, in your own home. If you are part of a home school community, we can bring group sessions to you as well.

Walk and Talk Counselling

Not all people feel comfortable talking in a counseling room, some find it easier to share whilst being outside and connecting with nature, surrounding colours and fresh air.

Walking and talking therapy is when you and I walk together and connect with nature. Whilst walking together at your pace, you are gently encouraged to share your struggles and life situations.

All Walk and Talk sessions take part at Craig-Y-Nos Country Park, unless we have agreed another suitable location.

“As someone who has tried CBT and talking therapy but felt awkward being
face to face with a stranger in a therapy room, seeing Annabelle is a different experience. Annabelle puts me at ease and having the fresh air, plants, birds, mindful tasks like planting seeds, weeding, touching and smelling the herbs, takes away all my self-consciousness and allows me to think, feel and speak freely. It has given me the courage and clarity to make really significant changes in my life, and ongoing support to navigate any difficulties and maintain the positives”.

Online and Telephone Counselling

Online or telephone sessions can be really beneficial for those unable to travel, who need the extra flexibility and/or prefer to talk from the comfort of their own home. Sessions take place via Google Meets or via your telephone number at a regular weekly time to suit you.
