Why Horses
The field of equine assisted, equine guided, equine supported therapy, learning and coaching is rapidly growing and gaining validity in the treatment and healing of many human conditions. Horses are being recognized as healers in areas ranging from PTSD, traumatic life experiences, mental health conditions to aiding us in moving through life’s ordinary challenges with more clarity and confidence.
At Horse Sense Healing, we partner with horses to assist humans to aid you on your journey of re-discovery, re-invention, and growing grit with grace utilizing the powerful Equine Gestalt Coaching Method®. Make sure to read this article in Horse & Rider to learn more about how a new survey reveals some amazing stats about the effects of equine-assisted therapy using The Equine Gestalt Coaching Method.
Horses help us rediscover our hidden sparks of wholeness and guide us back to our complete selves.
Equine Gestalt Method Overview
The Equine Gestalt Coaching Method
The Equine Gestalt Coaching Method® was developed by Melisa Pearce, a core founder since 1989, of the horse-human healing movement. The experiential nature of the method involves the horse as an active partner with the coach in the client’s exploratory process. Taking an integrative approach of the equine’s interaction combined with positive coaching, somatic awareness guidance and Gestalt methodology, assists the client in examining their life and choices made with a focus on designing a positive future. Learn more about Touched by a Horse on their website.
