In-person walking therapy in Los Angeles and virtual therapy across California for adults exploring recovery, emotional wellbeing, and deeper healing beyond insight alone.

Therapy with me is a space to reconnect with yourself, build trust in your felt sense, and return steadiness in your body.

This is not about fixing you.
It is about supporting your nervous system in moving out of survival and into grounded, present, embodied experience.

Does This Sound Like You?

You might be here because:

  • Talk therapy helped-but it didn’t reach everything

  • You are sober or sober-curious, and still feel stuck in your system

  • You are in recovery, but anxiety or overwhelm still lives in your body

  • You understand your patterns but nothing is shifting at a body level

  • Your body holds tension, shutdown, or numbness that talking can’t touch

  • You feel disconnected from yourself-even when you can make sense of things

A Different
Approach to Healing

Mind in Motion Psychotherapy is an integrative, somatically informed approach.

Healing doesn’t happen through talking alone-it happens through presence, movement, and lived experience. When the body is included alongside conversation, therapy becomes more regulating, more accessible, and more real This may include walking therapy, body-based awareness, and nervous system-informed work, always grounded in clinical practice and paced with care.

About Elisabeth

I am Elisabeth T. White, a licensed therapist offering walking therapy in Los Angeles and virtual therapy across California. My work is grounded, collaborative, and informed by somatic and nervous system-based approaches. I help clients connect thoughts with body sensations so the nervous system can slow down and experience safety in real time.

This creates space for change that feels deeper, more integrated, and lasting. Therapy with me is not rushed. It is a space to slow down, listen inwardly, and become more fully yourself.

How Walking Therapy Can Help

Walking therapy integrates gentle movement with psychotherapy. For some clients, moving the body while talking supports emotional regulation, insight, and engagement in ways that seated, indoor therapy may not.

Walking therapy can:

Support nervous system regulation
Reduce intensity and self-consciousness
Help access emotions held in the body
Support clients who feel stuck or shut down
Encourage present-moment awareness
Integrate mind and body in real time
Feel more natural and human

Walking therapy is always optional and not appropriate for everyone.

Sessions are adapted based on safety, clinical appropriateness, physical ability, client preference, and weather. Online sessions are always available, and walking is introduced collaboratively, never as a requirement.

Mind in Motion Psychotherapy is especially supportive for people who feel stuck in traditional talk therapy, experience anxiety & stress in their bodies, or benefit from movement and nature as part of their regulation process.

Therapy is collaborative, attuned, and responsive, meeting each person where they are.

Therapy may support you in:

✤‍ Developing a greater sense of safety and regulation in your body

✤‍ Understanding emotional and relational patterns with compassion

Strengthening self-trust and emotional resilience

Creating change that feels embodied and sustainable

Exploring trauma and family of origin experiences at a pace your nervous system can tolerate

Learning to notice body sensations in real time and respond with choice rather than pushing through

Building the capacity to stay present with difficult experiences without becoming overwhelmed

Somatic therapy works well online because it focuses on your internal experience, not physical techniques.

We work with what is happening in your body in real time, wherever you are, allowing sessions to feel flexible, private, and consistent.

This approach recognizes that experiences live not just in thoughts, but in the body.

You may understand your patterns, yet still feel anxious or tense. This is often because the nervous system has not fully experienced safety.

Together, we slow down and gently notice sensations as they arise, helping your system begin to settle rather than stay in survival mode.

This work is not about pushing through discomfort.
It is about building safety, awareness, and choice at a pace that feels right for you.
