Equine Assisted Mental Health Therapy
Hi I’m Nadine and I’m a Therapist at Solace. I hold a Diploma of Counselling and I’m a certified Equine Mental Heath Practitioner. Working with the horses, I help people to find ways to reframe unhelpful thoughts, change behaviour patterns and feel better about themselves. I provide a gentle, holistic approach in a natural, outdoor environment. Sessions are uniquely tailored for each client. $AU 150 75 minutes.
Solace Equine Assisted Therapy is based in the beautiful Sunshine Coast Hinterland in Queensland, Australia. Sessions at Solace are individually tailored for the needs of each client and are held in a natural, farm style environment with the support and participation of the horses . If you’re feeling stuck or confused, unhappy or anxious then we could help you find your way to feeling better.
Hello Lina. Thank you for your questions. Equine Assisted Therapy sessions at Solace are normally 75mins and the number of sessions required varies for each client. I’m not sure what you mean by the accuracy of the practice. Could you please expand a little on this question so I can better understand the context. Thanks, Nadine.
Hello. how accurate is this practice? how long does it last?
Hello Anastasiia. Thanks for reaching out with your question. Horses are generally big animals and it’s not unusual for people to feel a bit scared about being near them. I have two full sized horses who are both trained to work in equine assisted therapy. They are naturally calm and kind natured and will respect a clients personal boundaries whilst supporting them during a session. We always work to the clients capacity and I am constantly monitoring horses and humans to make sure we all stay safe. Before any clients meet the horses we first complete a safety briefing. For those who find the size of a horse initially intimidating, I have two miniature horses who have beautiful manners and are very happy to work with clients who need to build their confidence during their equine encounters. If you have any more questions or you’d like to book a session please get in touch again. Nadine.
Hello! If I have never worked with horses and am a little afraid of them, is this session right for me?
