Horsemanship & Rider Mindset Coaching

  • $160 + GST for 60 minute session

  • $240 + GST for 90 minute session

Horsemanship and rider mindset coaching is a blend of equestrian sport psychology, trauma-informed psychotherapy, and relational horsemanship. Sessions are for riders who have their own horses and would like to develop more skills for navigating the cognitive and emotional elements that come up personally in their work with horses. These sessions compliment your regular riding lessons as we get to focus on what is going on for you as the rider and how you can become more calm, connected, and free around your horse.

Some of the skills we work on include: deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, CBT for unhelpful thinking styles, relational attachment patterns, inner consent, congruence, motivation optimization, and managing fear & anxiety. For competitive riders who would like to overcome mental blocks related to their sport, we also work on optimal states of consciousness for performance, activating a sense of “flow”, and cultivating a meaningful, purpose-driven existence both inside and outside of the arena.
