Counseling sessions are available without the inclusion of a horse. These meetings can be held in person, or virtually using Zoom or Google Meets. Each session is one (1) hour long, and can be scheduled weekly, biweekly, or monthly depending on the need.

The first couple of sessions will involve getting to know you, and what area(s) need counsel. From there, we will work together to develop a care plan, dig into the root of the issue, how to manage and repair the effects, and an assignment to do between sessions.

For a counseling session that includes the horse, each session will be held at the barn, weather permitting. Each session is one (1) hour long, and will entail grooming and tacking the horse (if applicable), talk therapy, counseling exercise or activity, a final groom and unpacking, and of course homework to be done at home.

Equine Assisted Therapy is specialized for those with physical difficulties. While no technique-focused riding lessons are given, therapy focuses on how sitting on and walking the horse around provides great benefit to balance, core strength, muscle strength, and posture. Additional benefits we see are learning to quiet our hands, coordination skills, fine and gross motor skills improvement, and improving verbal communication abilities. All of this is done carefully and creatively through movement and play therapy.

Therapy will consist of a one (1) hour session, grooming and tacking the horse, specialized exercises to address specific needs, and of course a final groom and treat for the horse.

*Important Note: At this time I am unable to accept clients who would require heavy supervision, be that for physical or emotional needs.
