Welcome to Equine Reflections!

Remember the excitement you felt rushing to the farm to see your horse, that sweet smell of hay and horses that so many of us cherish. Bringing him in from the field, grooming him, and tacking him up made you feel alive. When you rode, it was like soaring through the sky, a pure moment of joy.  But then something changed. It’s that unspoken moment we all fear—you lost your nerve while leading him in from the paddock. You got cornered in the stall and fell off when you were just walking. That incredible feeling of joy has turned into dread and uncertainty.   I understand how frustrating it must be to hear others say, “Just get over it; that was a year ago.” It’s not that simple, is it? You're not alone in feeling this way, and it’s okay to take the time you need. Healing and regaining your confidence take time, and every step forward matters. 

Equine Coaching is coaching for you—your mindset, nervous system, confidence, boundaries, leadership, and self-trust—supported by the presence and feedback of horses. Horses have a powerful way of reflecting what’s happening within us, helping you see patterns clearly and shift them in a grounded, practical way.

This is not riding instruction or technical training.

No riding experience is required. The focus is personal growth, emotional regulation, and how you show up—especially when pressure, fear, uncertainty, or old habits take over.

• confidence and calm around horses
   
• overthinking, second-guessing, and self-doubt
   
• leadership, boundaries, and clear decision-making
   
• rebuilding trust after setbacks
   
• regulating emotions and responding instead of reacting
   
• feeling more present, steady, and connected
   

Start with an Initial Session (unmounted).
In this 2-hour session we clarify what you want, identify what’s been getting in the way, and build tools you can use immediately. You’ll leave with a simple plan for what to practice and what support I recommend next.

After the initial session:

• You may continue with unmounted sessions, or
   
• If you own a horse and your challenge is best addressed together, you can choose optional horse-present sessions to apply mindset tools in real time (still coaching—not instruction).
