Resilience in Motion
Run Therapy
Stuck body, stuck mind.
Negative thoughts, emotions, and memories have you feeling like it is impossible to move forward.
It feels like you are stuck in mud or on a rollercoaster you never chose to experience.
Traditional therapy often attempts to talk you out of this state of being, but sometimes that doesn’t work.
Run Therapy is different.
Movement is healing.
Using the body’s own natural healing abilities, Run Therapy helps relieve stress, depression, anxiety, and anger through combining running with other therapeutic interventions.
Running enhances resilience, self-confidence, and a sense of connection and belonging. Other benefits include overall physical wellness and improved memory and ability to learn.
Participants in Run Therapy will each receive an individualized plan and journal developed specifically for their goals and healing.
Adult Run Therapy Group
Join us Tuesdays at 6 PM from May – October for Run Therapy group. This group is an intergenerational adult therapy group that welcomes participants of most running levels. From brand-new beginner runners who want to be able to run one mile to those who have run marathons, this group is for you!
More than another social running club, the Run Therapy group is designed specifically to address emotional and psychological struggles through physical movement. As a group we will learn to process negative emotions, thoughts, and memories.
This group is an open group and can be joined anytime throughout the season.
