A little visit with Summer and her Mama Mia today. A little visit with Summer and her Mama Mia today. We are often asked if riding is part of our therapy offering. Short answer: Nope. Equine-assisted psychotherapy happens on the ground, guided by a registered psychotherapist and a horse who offers real-time feedback - without judgement. Horses help clients explore boundaries, emotions, trust, and self-awareness in a way that talk therapy alone sometimes can’t. No riding. No horse experience needed. Just curiosity and openness. #equinetherapy #mentalhealtheducation #experientialtherapy #psychotherapist

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 therapy. Working alongside horses can help create safety, awareness, and connection when words feel hard to access. Healing doesn’t have to be rushed. We go at you own pace. #traumatherapy #equinetherapy #psychotherapistontario @ptbocounty
The Mane Intent - Jennifer Garland Psychotherapy i The Mane Intent - Jennifer Garland Psychotherapy is pleased to be a sponsor of The Tiffany Show’s 3rd Annual International Women’s Day Celebration on Sunday, March 8, 2026 10-2 pm at The Venue Peterborough honouring women in our community. Visit @_thetiffanyshow to purchase tickets. For IWD 2026, the primary theme is “Give to Gain” emphasizing generosity, mentorship, and collaboration to foster gender equality. When people, organizations, and communities give generously, opportunities and support for women increase. When women thrive, we all thrive. Whether through donations, knowledge, resources, infrastructure, visibility, advocacy, education, training, mentoring, or time, contributing to women’s advancement helps create a more supportive and interconnected world. What will you give to gain gender equality?  The Mane Intent - Jennifer Garland Psychotherapy provides psychotherapy and equine-assisted psychotherapy largely to women and youth. We are located 15 minutes east of Peterborough on a beautiful century farm. #thetiffanyshow #iwd2026 #GiveToGain #equineassistedtherapy @ptbocounty
