About

About

Equine assisted counselling offers an alternative to room based counselling. The sessions are offered in an open, natural environment with the opportunity to move around as needed. There are no rooms with walls and doors to create a sense of confinement that can be challenging for some. Room based and zoom sessions are also offered.

 

Spending time in the presence of horses is calming and can give the nervous system an opportunity to experience a moment of co-regulation in a safe place with another living being. In time self-regulation can be discovered and nurtured. This creates the opportunity for clients to build self-confidence and rediscover some old strengths and build new strengths.

 

No horse experience is needed, and anyone can participate. No riding is involved.
