Integrate Mental Wellness into Your Adventure

At Desert Hiking Company, we believe in the healing power of nature. We’ve partnered with Radiant Sun Therapy to offer a counseling package designed to help you mentally prepare for your adventure, integrate the experience, and check in on your progress after returning to everyday life.

The Counseling Package Includes:

  • Pre-Trip Counseling (1 Hour): A session with a licensed therapist to help you mentally prepare for your time in the wilderness. Set realistic expectations for your journey, work through any anxieties, and ensure you’re ready for the challenges and reflections that come with backpacking.

  • Post-Trip Integration (1 Hour): After your trip, reflect on your experience with the guidance of a therapist. This session will help you process the challenges and growth you encountered in the wilderness and integrate these lessons back into your daily life.

  • One-Month Check-In (30 Minutes): A follow-up session about a month after your trip to check in on how you’re doing, ensure you’re on track, and offer any additional support to help you continue your journey of personal growth.

Total of 2.5 Hours with a Licensed Mental Health Professional. Conducted via Telehealth over a secure video call.

Cost: $297

Support Every Step of the Way

This counseling package is designed to help you maximize the benefits of your adventure, ensuring that both your time in the wilderness and your return to daily life are filled with growth, insight, and clarity. Whether you’re a seasoned hiker or new to backpacking, integrating mental health support into your trip can create a more meaningful and transformative experience.

Our licensed therapist, through Radiant Sun Therapy, will help you navigate the mental challenges that can arise during a wilderness journey, empowering you to engage with the trip in a deeply personal and reflective way. The pre-trip session will equip you with tools to mentally prepare for the challenges and opportunities ahead. After the trip, the post-trip integration session will offer a chance to reflect, unpack the lessons learned, and incorporate them into your ongoing personal journey.

The check-in a month later serves as a final step to ensure you’re continuing to benefit from your experience and to help you maintain the clarity and peace you’ve gained. This package is tailored to offer ongoing support, helping you cultivate resilience, mindfulness, and well-being in the years to come.

Adding this package to your trip is an investment in both your adventure and your mental health. We’re here to support you every step of the way.
