True transformation rarely happens through thinking alone, and horses and donkeys can lead us into an entirely different way of being. By responding not to our words, but to our deep physiological truths and sense of knowing, these gentle animals invite us to soften our defenses and open up to an entirely different kind of conversation. In my practice, equine-assisted somatic coaching serves as a direct bridge to your instinctual self, where the relationship can lead to deep shifts, lasting insights, and profound personal growth.

​

This work takes place within a peaceful 35-acre rural sanctuary near the ocean, home to a blended herd of rescued and rehomed wild horses and burros, and domesticated donkeys who have survived past abuse, neglect, or abandonment. Because these sentient animals live in the present moment, they serve as honest, non-judgmental mirrors of your internal landscape. In their powerful presence, you will experience what it feels like to be met purely as you are, allowing you to connect more fully with the inner wisdom of your body.

​

I honor your unique path of healing by hosting these experiences for individuals and couples through private sessions and immersive residential retreats. Whether you are navigating a major life crossroads, seeking to resolve past trauma, or looking for a sense of renewal, partnering with the animals provides a dynamic, experiential environment to safely explore boundaries, process challenging emotions, identify unconscious patterns, and discover new, more empowered ways of being to support your mental and emotional freedom.

This transformative work is offered through two distinct pathways. Equine-Assisted Somatic Coaching is an experiential modality where equines act as a living co-regulator, helping you track your nervous system responses, process stuck emotions, and embody real shifts. Equine-Assisted Psychedelic Integration (EAPI) provides a powerful, grounded adjunct to the preparation and integration that is essential in psychedelic medicine work. Both modalities serve to translate profound, non-ordinary insights directly into your everyday life.
