Anne’s passion and expertise is supporting others to feel safe, seen, and heard.At HEAL, the horses and Anne offer safe gentle opportunities for horse assisted learning, somatic/sensory awareness, counselling support, emotional regulation, healthy relationship skills, and exploring any beliefs or behaviours that may be limiting our ability to live our best life. Anne has been a fully accredited trauma informed, Equine Assisted Learning Practitioner for six years who recently added a counselling approach to her HEAL work with a Diploma of Counselling.With over 30 years of teaching experience in tertiary education sectors in Australia and Canada, Anne is a highly skilled educator and passionate mentor.Horses are intelligent, sensitive, social animals who are very attuned to our body language, emotional state, breathing and even our heart rate. This genuine biological connection with horses means, they see us as we truly are which is incredibly healing. Horse assisted learning and counselling experiences are held alongside our horses on a beautiful country property in north Nowra. Anne’s listening skills, empathy, and compassion are her most valuable assets as she supports others to heal from life’s challenges, notice their own strengths, discover genuine connection with self and others, and live their best life. No matter where you are in your life journey Anne and our HEAL herd can help you accept how life challenges may have shaped your social/emotional skills, your connection with others, and your health and wellbeing skills. Together we’ll explore unhealthy or outdated habits, be curious about some of those self-limiting beliefs you may have (e.g., I’m not good enough), and mentor you to be the leader of your own life.
