Horse Therapy

Become more grounded and authentic to your true self

Finish the unfinished business of your past so it longer affects your future.

Whether you're holding onto trauma or just looking for direction in your life, Robert and his horses are here to support you in your journey. Break free of limiting beliefs that do not serve you and discover a simpler way to create more joy in life. Live in harmony with yourself and others and experience more beauty in life.

There is no clear road map for how to overcome actions that sabotage our desires. Together, we determine what that path will look like for you and how to handle the obstacles.

Most people experience significant breakthroughs within the first few sessions and continue on with follow-up sessions for further growth.

First session is two hours and subsequent sessions are 90 minutes. Wear closed toe shoes and dress appropriately for the weather as sessions are held in an indoor arena during the winter.

Trust The Horses + Trust The Process

Temperament Exam

Robert starts with a temperament exam to understand how you make decisions, communicate with people, and organize the world.

Genogram

Then he works with you to make a genogram, which defines your family members, how they are related, and their behavior patterns. The genogram allows you to identify how these family dynamics have influenced your behaviors, shaped your beliefs, created coping mechanisms, and created your concept of self -- often in ways you many not have been aware of.

Co-Active Questions

Co-active questions are where the real work begins. By asking powerful questions, Robert helps you find clarity and invites you to take action. These open-ended questions create greater possibilities for expanded awareness and a fresh perspective.

Equine Gestalt Method

The horse is an active partner in your exploratory process. Together the horse and Robert work to support you to move forward in your life, releasing the pain and trauma that is holding you back. Horses are very good at helping your coach identify what is authentic and what is not.

Horses don't care about what you think, but are very intune with how you feel. If you are angry or aggressive, the horse may become obstinate. If you are anxious, the horse may get skittish. When you are open and calm, the horse will likely respond in kind. Witnessing a horse's response can help you learn how your behavior impacts others, and you can see yourself in a more realistic way.

People also feel good around horses. They lower our blood pressure, heart rate, stress, and anxiety. They anchor you in the present as you and Robert delve into your past.

Listen to Robert's Process

My soul feels more complete when I lay my hand on their magnificent body and gaze into their gentle eyes. I feel one with nature, grounded, whole, complete, and at peace. I feel my internal energy shift to center when I am quietly in the company of a horse.

After my first equine gestalt coaching session, I was given the opportunity and support to let go of something I was unaware I was hanging onto. This experience led me to have better boundaries and healthier relationships with myself and others, dropping my stress levels significantly! I stand behind this work 100 percent!
