You are trained in psychotherapy and want to learn how the horses can become your guides in your therapeutic work. You are a psychologist, psychotherapist or a psychiatrist.
Training to become a Horse Guided Therapist takes approx. 18 months.
The education is build up in an equal and loving collaboration with our horses, we use recent knowledge on how horses are able to pick up information from people, by sensing our micro-body language and resonance.
You learn about horses- and humans nervous systems and how you can understand and translate the information that the horses give to your clients. You will learn how horses can gently guide you and your clients to open up to layers deeper than those we can access through talking.
The way we communicate with the horses by getting in touch with our own inner lead gives our clients a unique opportunity to work with their self-understanding and self-esteem.
We need to listento the wisdom that lies in our body using intuition as an essential element in our work. Therefore, it is also natural that we continuously investigate and develop our ownintuition and learn how to create a space in which people dare to trust themselves and their feelings. In this way we work with the wholeness of the person, where head and body work together.
As a therapist, it is important to be able to see, sense, feel and hear, what you, the horse and your clients need.
When you work with humans and horses, you must be able to be neutral, see clearly and not be affected by your own projections. The journey to your client’s blockages also causes resonance in you. Therefore, It is important that you embark on this journey yourself.
The horses tell us what we need to know. It requires us to be able to be without any plans, projects or ambitions and without knowing where the session will take us. Only this way we will be able to find guidance.
You must therefore develop your intuition and learn to trust it. You must learn to be confident with the unknown in your therapy sessions.
You will be supported to develop your skills to understand and communicate with horses and people and to apply this knowledge in your therapeutic work.
