We offer individual sessions to suite different client needs.
Individual Sessions for Adults
We work with the BCM framework to facilitate the resolution of trauma – which is grounded in the understanding that trauma is an interruption to a natural biological response.
Symptoms such as anxiety, fear, hypervigilance, shut down, avoidance, chronic tension, pain, and depression are adaptive responses by a system that is still organised around threat. Sessions includes creating more capacity and resilience, increasing somatic awareness, learning practices to maintain well-being, and updating limiting beliefs that keep us stuck – as well as resolving trauma.
Duration: 1 hour
Frequency: Plan on 3 – 5 sessions initially spaced approximately 1 week apart.
Why so few? Because our nervous systems are already organised around threat, and are waiting for the right conditions to complete their defensive responses so they can return to baseline. Creating the right conditions is the unknown time factor. This involves identifying and suspending the adaptions and inhibitions that may prevent your nervous system from completing a protective response.

Individual sessions for Teens
We work at the development and maturity level of the individual, as well as the unique challenges of navigating adolescence: identity, self acceptance, self-expression, emotional fluency, and setting healthy boundaries.
Duration: 1 hour

Individual Sessions for Children
We work at the development and maturity level of the child, recognising their growing need for autonomy. Developmental needs include safety, belonging, emotional expression, empathy, self awareness and boundaries.
How we work with children: Safety first and always. We use observations, questions, metaphors, and interactions with the horses to increase awareness of self and others.
We suggest that a parent or primary carer attends at least 3 indivisaul sessions for themselves – to increase capacity and stabilise their nervous system and learn practices they can use to support their children. Because nervous systems synchonise, and the mature nervous system will entrain the younger nervous system, the child – in fact the entire family will benefit.
