SUPPORTING YOU TO FEEL CALM, CLEAR AND CONNECTED
ADULTS
• Do you find traditional room based therapy challenging?
• Do you struggle to feel safe around people and prefer animals?
• Are you interested in learning more about yourself through interactions with horses?
Working with the horses can provide you with an opportunity to safely explore what happens or you in relationships. The horses provide a non-judgmental, often curious presence in the therapy sessions. They give honest feedback about how you are impacting them from moment to moment which can be really beneficial in noticing patterns that occur for you in relationship.
Our sessions are held in Waroona and you can book online through
the booking link or email us on

TEENS
• Are you worried about your teen and their mental health and
well-being?
• Does your teen complain about feeling lost, disconnected and
hopeless, they feel like they don’t fit in anywhere?
• Has your teen withdrawn from you, their friends, and life?
• Are they struggling to find their place?
• Do they feel like they are a failure? They just can’t get it right?
• Are they feeling isolated and alone?
• Are they anxious, depressed, aggressive or anti-social?
Working with horses has been demonstrated to helps teens build
self-esteem, confidence, self-awareness, and skills in
communication and forming healthy connections.
With wide-open space and the presence of gentle horses, teens
often find it easier to communicate more freely than being confined
to a room, one-on-one with a clinician.
Here, your teen will work with a qualified youth worker with many
years of experience in counselling and the horses in a calming,
non-threatening environment conducive to positive growth.
CHILDRENS
• Is your child struggling at school?
• Is your child being bullied or bullying others?
• Does your child struggle with behavioral issues?
• Does your child find school and learning difficult?
• Is your child anxious, withdrawn or sad?
Do you want your child to have the confidence, self-esteem, life
skills and resilience that life requires?
Children and horses form easy friendships. Children have been
shown to make tremendous strides when working with horses in a
therapeutic environment. Including horses in therapeutic sessions
supports kids to develop communication skills, confidence, body
awareness, perseverance, self-esteem, and healthy relating skills.
During the session, your child will work with a qualified youth worker
and the horses in a comforting, enjoyable environment conducive to
positive growth.
We also offer nature based outdoor sessions.
