Whispering Herd offers Equine Assisted Growth and counseling for personal and collective development. This form of experiential learning involves client, therapist and horse as co-facilitator to encourage wellbeing, holistic socio-sensual awareness, authentic and shared-leadership, confidence, congruence, community-building, healthy relationships and communication.  Our heart based programs are inspired by holistic First Nations teachings of the Medicine Wheel, as well as Buddhist philosophy. Open Year-Round.

This therapeutic model helps support and develop:

  • Personal Growth & Life transitions
  •  Health (mental, spiritual, emotional and/or physical)
  • Youth, individual, couple, family & group development
  • Authentic expression & purpose

Equine-Facilitated Mental Health (EFMH) includes a wide range of counseling, education and personal development approaches that aim to bring humans and equines together in healing and learning environments. In EFMH, clients work towards therapeutic and/or personal development and growth goals through carefully facilitated and supervised interactions with specially selected horses (EFMH-Canada, 2008).
