Great to meet you!

I provide person-centered, equine-assisted psychotherapy in a calm rural setting that supports your ability to reflect and grow. I have extensive experience working with individuals of all ages who have experienced trauma. Working with horses and being in a natural setting provides a unique opportunity to process challenges in a hands-on, immersive way.

My approach to therapy

A strong therapeutic relationship is one of the best indicators for a successful therapy journey. I want to meet clients where they are and establish a safe, supportive environment to process past and current life challenges.

What you can expect from me

My goal in the first session is to learn about you and your reason for seeking therapy (your biggest concerns). I also want to answer any questions you have about our therapy process at the farm, and begin to establish our therapeutic relationship.
