Horses Helping Humans
This equine assisted learning program helps disengaged and disadvantaged youth, people living with trauma, and NDIS participants of all ages to improve their communication skills, emotional regulation and confidence using the principals of natural horsemanship.
This is an incredibly simple, yet profoundly effective program using horsemanship skills to show the importance and impact that body language and energy projection when communicating with others.
Vera is an accredited and licenced facilitator of the award winning Horses Helping Humans program, has extensive experience and qualifications in the disability, aged care and mental health sectors, and holds qualifications in training and assessment, training design and development, and is a qualified nurse. Vera is also entering the final year of the Spiritual Direction Formation program at St. Francis College.
This program is not a counselling service or equine therapy. It is specifically designed to teach communication skills and body language awareness using personality profiling.
We teach participants about how their dominant personality types predispose them to certain body language and energy projection, particularly when under stress. When our participants learn techniques and awareness of human-to-human communication, they can lower anger, lower anxiety, learn to focus, and use these skills throughout their lives. Learning the skill of diffusing is one of the many skills taught through this program that youth workers notice as having a big impact on their students’ outcomes.
Participants do not need to have any previous horse experience and will not be riding a horse.
