What We Offer

At Heart, Mind, and Soul Counselling, we offer personalised Individual Talk Sessions designed to address a variety of emotional and psychological struggles. Our sessions provide a supportive and confidential environment where you can openly explore and work through your concerns.

Past Traumas
Traumatic experiences can leave lasting impacts on your mental and emotional health. Our therapy sessions focus on understanding and processing these past events, helping you to release their hold on your present life and move forward with resilience.

PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder)
Living with PTSD can be incredibly challenging. We utilise evidence-based therapies to help you manage and reduce the symptoms of PTSD, such as flashbacks, anxiety, and emotional numbness, enabling you to reclaim your sense of safety and well-being.

Anxiety
Anxiety can be overwhelming and debilitating. Our approach involves identifying the root causes of your anxiety, developing coping strategies, and implementing techniques to help you manage and reduce anxiety in your daily life.

Depression
Depression affects every aspect of your life, from your mood to your physical health. In our sessions, we provide a compassionate space to explore the underlying issues contributing to your depression and work towards developing a more positive and balanced outlook on life.

Self-Sabotaging Behaviours
Many individuals struggle with behaviours that undermine their own success and happiness. We help you recognise these patterns, understand their origins, and develop healthier strategies to replace self-sabotaging behaviours with constructive actions.

Limiting Beliefs
Limiting beliefs can hold you back from reaching your full potential. Through our sessions, we work to identify and challenge these beliefs, empowering you to adopt a more positive and growth-oriented mindset.

Most relationships experience difficulties at some point or another. You may struggle with feelings of hurt, not being heard or understood, not feeling significant or important. Your perceptions, emotions, feelings and/or mis-communications are often reasons you can encounter struggles in your relationships, especially if there have been experiences of infidelity from a previous relationship.

Couple’s work includes sessions with the two of you as well as individual sessions. There are often areas from your own past that are perhaps getting in the way of being able to experience a healthy, fulfilling and loving relationship with your partner.

At Heart, Mind, and Soul Counselling, we offer Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy through our FEEL (Facilitated Equine Experiential Learning) sessions. This innovative approach combines traditional therapeutic techniques with the unique and powerful connection between humans and horses.

Why Choose Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy?
Horses are highly intuitive and sensitive animals, capable of reflecting our emotions and behaviours in ways that can be profoundly insightful and therapeutic. Working with horses can help individuals gain deeper self-awareness, build trust, and develop emotional resilience.

Benefits of FEEL Sessions

• Enhanced Emotional Awareness: Horses respond to non-verbal cues, helping you become more aware of your own emotions and how they influence your behavior.
• Improved Communication Skills: Interacting with horses requires clear and assertive communication, which can translate to better interpersonal skills in your daily life.
• Increased Confidence: Successfully working with horses can boost your confidence and self-esteem, empowering you to tackle challenges in other areas of your life.
• Stress Reduction: Being in the presence of horses and engaging in outdoor activities can reduce stress and promote a sense of calm and relaxation.

Who Can Benefit?
Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy is suitable for individuals of all ages and backgrounds (although we primarily work with adults), particularly those who:

• Struggle with trauma, anxiety, or depression
• Have difficulty with traditional talk therapy
• Seek a non-judgmental and supportive environment for healing
• Want to improve their emotional regulation and coping skills

What to Expect in a FEEL Session
During a FEEL session, you will engage in a variety of activities with the horses, such as grooming, leading, and observing their behaviour. These interactions are guided by a registered therapist (Reg. #3129, RPC, MPCC) and an equine specialist (certified in two different modalities – FEEL cert. & EAL cert.) to ensure a safe and supportive experience. Each session is tailored to your specific needs and therapeutic goals.
