This is a 2 hour session working with a qualified counsellor and therapy horse.
The session is an experiential session and designed for you to be able to explore your feelings and emotions in response to being with the therapy horse.
Working with horses draws heavily upon attachment theory and will reflect how we are in relationships. It also relies upon congruence of the individual as horses are extremely sensitive to their environment and are able to reflect when we are not being congruent.
A holistic approach is adopted where we incorporate embodiment and somatic memory along with mindfulness / being in the here and now, is important as our body language, feelings and voice will effect the horse and vice a versa. Exploring the horse’s language engages empathy and reflects our frame of reference. It is also lovely to work outside in nature.
The cost is £150.00 including all insurances, subject to contracting.
We also offer Half day Mental Health Awareness, 1 day Mental Health Champion and Half day First Aid Refresher course.
All courses are certificated and accredited with Mental Health England.
