Psychotherapy and Wellness Offerings with Horses

Change Your Lead is made up of a group of licensed clinicians and equine professionals who incorporate horses into mental health treatment and wellness offerings. EAP involves a team of a licensed psychologist, an equine specialist and equine staff. Clients are encouraged to find solutions to their current difficulties through exercises aimed at he

lping them understand how they interact with others and the world around them. Horses are an integral part of this process as they provide neutral, immediate and nonverbal feedback, enhancing the learning experience. EAL involves equine based activities that are not therapy, per se, but are certainly therapeutic in nature. An example of this is skill building through a social skills learning group, violence prevention, team building, early interventions for at-risk youth and classroom visits. All sessions conducted by a CA licensed clinical psychologist: Angela Sherman, Ph.D. CA License #: PSY 23689.

What do we mean when we say “experiential learning” with horses?

🐴 Horses live fully in the present moment. As highly aware, sensitive animals, they respond honestly to what’s happening without judgment, expectation, or bias. That means we get real-time feedback, creating powerful opportunities to notice, adjust, and experience change as it happens.

💭 This is where the benefit of learning, growing and shifting through experience comes in. Even something as simple as braiding a horse’s mane can become meaningful; inviting focus, patience, connection, and awareness. A seemingly simply task can be an opportunity to help soothe and regulate our nervous system. Through these hands on experiences, we can practice life skillsets and get to actively experience them in real time.

🌷 It’s all about presence, connection, and discovering what works, one moment at a time!
