HORSES AS HELPERS
Taking a first step towards feeling better can at times seem very difficult. Horses can be very instrumental in helping you to relax and accept new ways of knowing yourself. Together with me as your mental health professional, we can work towards a goal that you decide upon in a way that allows you to notice your own ability to heal. The first step is often the most difficult when it is something we have never tried before. It is natural to wonder if you will like the experience. It is my hope that you will allow that part of you that is ready to move on in your life (whether as an explorer or a cautious passenger) a chance to share time with these 4 legged helpers. The horses that participate in our journey together are willing volunteers and often express this willingness in ways that may surprise you, as they support you. We look forward to working with you and wish you the best on your journey!
Laurie, Dyna and Charlie
