We had some farm visitors yesterday who took beaut We had some farm visitors yesterday who took beautiful pictures of the herd. You know who you are — many thanks for sharing!
It’s a beautiful day to play in the pond followed It’s a beautiful day to play in the pond followed by a healthy roll on the grass. So much activity unfolding in the field today. Behaviour is communication and the horses are happy today. A child’s behaviour is also communication. Working alongside horses creates a calm, non-judgemental space that helps clients build emotional awareness and self-regulation, feel grounded and safe in their body, and develop trust, confidence, and connection. I am a registered psychotherapist providing trauma-informed, compassionate care tailored to each individual. I work primarily with children (age 7 and up), youth, women and couples. My approach is collaborative, respectful and focused on helping you move forward at your own pace. We are welcoming new clients. #equineassistedtherapy #psychotherapy #mentalhealth
Summer is demonstrating her increasing confidence Summer is demonstrating her increasing confidence as she holds space for her herd while Raven supervises nearby. Confidence grows when we feel safe enough to try. In equine-assisted psychotherapy, clients learn self-trust, emotional regulation, and communication skills through experiential therapy — not pressure. As a registered psychotherapist, I work with children, youth, and adults navigating anxiety, trauma and life transitions. Small moments can lead to big change. We are welcoming new clients. #confidencebuilding #equinetherapyOntario #mentalhealthsupport

Trauma lives in the body — not just the mind. In m Trauma lives in the body — not just the mind. In my work as a Registered Psychotherapist, I support clients with trauma, anxiety, and depression using evidence-based psychotherapy and equine-assisted psychotherapy. Working alongside horses can help create safety, awareness, and connection when words feel hard to access. Healing doesn’t have to be rushed. You are allowed to go at your own pace. We are welcoming new clients. #traumatherapy #equinetherapy #psychotherapistontario
