Equine Assisted Psychotherapy

My experience of playing with horses has taught me that all emotions have a place and that by attending to what we need in the moment, we free the other to do the same. Happy healthy horses do not hold onto their tension, but support each other to release and let go, inviting us towards greater intimacy whilst reminding us of our boundaries. Whether its by tuning into their ability to sense each other and the natural world or by tapping into our own inner strength and vulnerability horses can help us to expand, and to grow, and to love. By allowing ourselves to ‘just be’ with horses we are also entering into their natural environment, stepping out of our suburban or city lives and experiencing the weather, the horses’ companions and a broader horizons we can again connect to the web of life.
