Being seen, being heard, feeling felt and getting gotten.
Life is so much about being seen and being heard, feeling felt and getting gotten. I heard this once and it’s stuck with me forever, helping to create a tag line for what we do at Horse Connect.
When we get those things it helps us become more resilient, more able to face the stresses and challenges of our world.
Horses are an integral part of the many challenges that Jack and I have had so far along our journey of life.
We NEED to share them with you. To give YOU a chance to be helped by spending time with our horses.
Whether you need support through your grief, anxiety or mental health, the horses are there for you. Need help with family communication, or corporate leadership? The horses can teach you. Need to find yourself again, or just have fun? The horses will inspire and uplift you.
You will be SEEN, be HEARD, and be ACCEPTED here.

My Unique Approach
Our inclusive programs harness the intuitive nature of horses to foster emotional growth, self-awareness, and resilience in a supportive and experiential environment. Working with the horses on the ground allows the horses and humans to communicate in very personal and meaningful ways. The horses mirror our emotions and energy in a way that teaches us that our emotions are real and of value. Working one on one or in teams, learning to lead or to follow, each encounter is an empowering learning experience.

Journey of Self-Awareness and Resilience
By engaging with horses, participants can work through their grief or anxiety. Horses affirm and validate, they don’t judge. The horse human connection creates a space that is unique to each participant. Allowing the horses to teach leads to meaningful and lasting change.
Horses are nonjudgmental, quick to forgive, set boundaries, and use body language.
They look for strong leadership, work in community and have different personalities.
They give respect and trust, are sensitive and intuitive and help build self-confidence and self-esteem.
