Horsemanship and behavior consulting to improve equine welfare and foster joyful connections.
Horses are sentient beings.
Horses are sentient beings who deserve to be listened to and have their needs met. Domestic horses face many challenges. We can help them live happier, healthier lives through training. And at the same time, we can find fulfilment and have fun!
Whether you have a competition show horse, an unhandled mustang, or a retired lesson horse with lameness issues, I believe your horse’s welfare is of utmost importance. I can help you and your horse with husbandry behaviors, groundwork, riding, finding better balance and ease of movement, and troubleshooting behavior issues. I strive to make my work accessible for horses and humans, regardless of health issues, desire to ride, or training style. Both in person and online training options are available.
Behavior Consultations
Do you and your horse have a behavior issue that you are struggling with? Is your horse displaying aggressive behaviors, or has their behavior suddenly changed? An in-depth behavior consultation can help address the underlying issues causing the unwanted behavior. As a current master's student in Applied Animal Behavior and Welfare, I am committed to taking an interdisciplinary and collaborative approach to behavior, addressing medical needs, environment, and human-horse communication in ethical ways that have the horse’s and human’s welfare as a primary goal. Both in person and online options are available.
