As a LEAP certified practitioner I provide Equine Assisted Therapy for 1:1 clients. This ground based therapy uses the horse as a member of the therapeutic team. Sessions are client led so that the individual needs are met and allows clients to explore thoughts, memories and emotions at a pace and depth that they are ready for. This work is subtle but has a high impact and slow release effect.  

​

I have over 30 years of experience with horses and  while the bulk of my therapeutic work is done with non-horse riders I have found my experience of horse behaviour and deep understanding of human behaviour can be combined to create a profound impact in the relationship between a horse and their human. I work with people at all levels in the equestrian world who are looking fora deeper understanding of their relationship with their horse by exploring their own emotional and mental wellbeing. 

 

After the birth of my first child i realised i could use my training to help women who often need support to heal mentally from birth as well as support in motherhood. Equine therapy provides an ideal space where women can explore their new status as mother in a calm, supportive and quiet environment.
