The Equine Team
Meet Romeo
I am a gelded 12 year old, formally retired equestrian show jumper. About 7 years ago I had an accident and hurt my foot. I was told I would never jump again, and was put to pasture.
Four years ago, a horse trainer saw me one day in a field and asked my owners at the time if I could join her barn to be a lesson horse. I traveled to her barn and was soon discovered as a great horse for kids. I was known as the horse that gives you confidence because I am pretty chill.
Then Samantha bought me. We instantly were a team - to see my potential and that I was not just a show horse.
Now I have a new job - to join the Equine Team. To work with you on your journey.
To be apart of something more.
I get to walk this path with you.

Why I use horses and how it changed my life too
I have always loved horses. I grew up with them but had lost touch with that life over the years. It wasn't until I was much older; finished school, traveled, and settled down in Alberta in 2013 that I started to revisit my goals. I knew that I was going to become a Psychologist, own horses again, and then bring the two things I love together.
When my mind is full, and I feel uncertain - I go see the horses.
When I don't see a path forward, and don't feel grounded - I go see the horses.
When I feel scared, when my heart hurts - I go see the horses.
When I go see the horses, it is not comfort from those feelings, it is not a way to avoid, it is peace. The answers are within me, and within you to solve unwanted or unhealthy thoughts. And when we have this peace, we are shown a way forward that is lined with confidence and filled with love for ourselves in the choices and decisions we make in this world. We are accepted.
I feel accepted. I feel loved.
As a psychologist, we cannot control the world that happens outside four walls of the office for our clients. But as a psychologist with horses, I can bring an experience of that world to you. To challenge what we know to be truth and write our own narrative. Where we once felt broken, we can feel whole.
A horse cannot lie - a natural born instinct to be truth-tellers. Horses can share a special gift. The gift to be seen and be a true reflection of who we are and who we can become.
