Equine-Assisted Therapy
The Eagala Model
I’m excited to introduce a new dimension to my practice: Equine-Assisted Therapy using the Eagala Model. As a trained and certified Eagala practitioner, I offer a unique, experiential approach to emotional healing and personal development grounded in the powerful connection between humans and horses.
Discover insight, confidence, and calm through connection with horses.
What is the Eagala Model?
The Eagala Model is an internationally recognised, evidence-based framework for equine-assisted psychotherapy and personal development. It involves structured, ground-based sessions (no riding), where clients engage with horses in a safe, reflective environment. Horses are highly intuitive and respond to non-verbal cues, offering honest feedback that can lead to deep emotional insight and lasting change.
How It Works
Each session is:
-
Ground-based (no horse riding involved)
-
Confidential and client-led
-
Facilitated by me (as a qualified Eagala practitioner) and my team of horses
-
Tailored to your personal goals and challenges
​
Through creative, structured interactions with the horses, you are invited to explore themes such as:
-
Anxiety and trauma
-
Boundaries and trust
-
Confidence and communication
-
Emotional regulation and resilience
-
Self-awareness and personal growth
​
The process is free from interpretation or pressure. You lead the journey reflecting on what arises naturally, with gentle guidance and support.
Who It's For
Equine-assisted therapy is suitable for:
-
Children and young people
-
Adults seeking personal development or emotional support
-
Teams and organisations seeking experiential learning and growth
Group & Corporate Sessions
In addition to individual therapy, I offer:
-
Group sessions to support emotional wellbeing and connection
-
Corporate team-building experiences focused on leadership, communication, and collaboration
​
These sessions provide a powerful alternative to traditional workshops encouraging insight, trust, and creative problem-solving in a dynamic outdoor setting.
