Candesa is an experienced and certified Equine Assisted Psychotherapy Practitioner and Counsellor that uses evidence based approaches. Candesa provides services for individuals, couples and families and is a registered NDIS Provider.

Equine Assisted Psychotherapy offers an engaging way for people to experience growth and change. Therapy with horses as supports provides a 'safe challenge' for people to be in relationship and to explore feelings, behaviours, and patterns in a new but challenging way. All activities are ground-based. No horse riding is involved, and no previous experience is required.

Candesa also provides office-based counselling services. Her experience encompasses working with adults, teens, and children over 8 years old to address a range of issues including depression, anxiety, stress management, anger management, workplace injury, addictions, couple counselling, family therapy, domestic violence, trauma, grief and loss, suicide intervention, and eating disorders. 

HorseAccord is situated on a rural 10 acre property in Stapylton, just south of Brisbane (www.horseaccord.com.au). Candesa practices mindfulness and liberty work with horses to maintain her own sense of balance and wellbeing. She loves her life of being with horses and creating opportunities for others to benefit from their wisdom.
