The horse is a majestic animal that embodies the spiritual power of independence, freedom, nobleness, endurance, confidence, triumph, heroism and competition.

This image personally resonates with me for stepping out of my comfort zone, change of routine and escaping 'circles'.

What does the horse symbolise for you ?

The horse offers a non judgemental relationship that consists of building trust. They allow us to feel present in the moment which can help us gather our thoughts in the here and now in order for us to let go of negative feelings and create new goals for the future 🎨🖌️🖼️

Welcome to my page ! I am a qualified hcpc registered art therapist and a member of the British association of art therapists (BAAT).

Equine art therapy is a social and emotional experience that incorporates both art therapy and interaction with horses.

Horse engagement offers a non judgemental connection helping us to feel grounded and present in the moment through building trust.

Art therapy is a reflective non intrusive way of expressing emotions through art materials. You do not need to be an artist. You will explore emotions through painting drawing and mark making. Aiming to improve self esteem and confidence. It is particularly helpful for those who find it hard to express their feelings through words alone.

This showed up for me today..3,000 years ago a tribe marked the land with the horse symbol..it can still be seen today and many have visited this land mark..

Horses have been used as symbols for thousands of years within walls and landscapes.

In Shamanism, the Horse Power Animal carries the Medicine Person between the Worlds. A Horse helps you connect with spiritual energies and abilities. Horse also supports you in seeing things in a different light, which opens the path to visionary gifts and a renewed connection with the Earth.
