utually respectful activities such as riding, grooming, handling, and lunging engage the partners in a healing relationship that leads the client towards personal insight and lasting change. Treatment Philosophy

As a therapist, my job is to promote emotional healing. Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy is a highly effective treatment due to a horse's inherent nature, inner strength, and profound ability to connect. Judy Weston-Thompson: MFT, CEIP-MH

Having experienced my own healing bond with horses, combined with my love of doing psychotherapy, it seemed natural to combine the two. I studied the field of EFP and all its components, including the nature of horses and their exquisite power to heal. My goal as a psychotherapist is to continue offering an equine therapeutic practice that allows people of all ages and issues to embrace this profound experience. I invite you to share my passion in this journey of connecting to our higher selves. For horses can educate through first hand, subjective, personal experiences, unlike human tutors, teachers, and professors can ever do. Horses can build character, not merely urge one to improve on it. Horses forge the mind, the character, the emotions and inner lives of humans. People can talk to one another about all these things and remain distanced and lonesome. In partnership with a horse, one is seldom lacking for thought, emotion and inspiration. Charles de Kunffy

Courage, wisdom born of insight and humility, empathy born of compassion and love, all can be bequeathed by a horse to his rider. Charles de Kunffy

An instinct sympathy which makes the horse the master of one heart, one pulse, one understanding love-is never made, but born. George Chamberlain
