OUR SERVICES
We support individuals and their needs in private sessions. We also assist various organisations in building stronger relationships through improved understanding, communication, and leadership.
Welcoming individuals from all walks of life.
At Path of the Horse, we are driven by a vision to assist individuals of all ages and backgrounds in their pursuit of better mental health and overall well-being.
Our approach is powerful, effective, and empathetic, dedicated to helping our clients make positive changes. We empower individuals to become more self-aware, enabling them to make clearer choices about their lives. By fostering 'awareness,' we actively work towards healing, managing, building resilience, fostering better relationships, and maintaining improved mental health. We embrace individuals just as they are, welcoming all their feelings and emotions.
We focus on supporting individuals in private sessions and fostering stronger connections within organisations. Our commitment extends to creating a safe space where clients engage in meaningful activities with our horses. Here, they have the option to process experiences, feelings, and thoughts—a journey that often mirrors life's challenges, offering profound self-exploration.

We need your support!
We operate as a self-funded charity, and the upkeep of our trained, happy, and healthy horses, along with maintaining our leased property, is a time-consuming and costly endeavour.
Your support plays a crucial role in enabling us to continue our mission. Whether it's through a donation to aid our clients, sponsoring a horse, providing horse feed, or contributing to facility improvements, every bit of assistance makes a significant impact.
If you share our commitment to making a positive difference, we invite you to reach out and explore the various ways you can support us.
