About Us
- Are the horses calling you ?
- Nicola is trained in the FEEL approach - Facilitated Equine Experiential Learning
- "Horses helping people, people helping horses"
- Nicola first came to the ranch after being a part of a Yoga with Horses session with another Yoga Teacher and friend,... the horses were calling her near in the process of losing her father to Cancer.
- Her father would say "live for today" ... and Nicola says "cause no-one is promised tomorrow"...
- Since then she can regularly be seen teaching Yoga with the Horses at the ranch, as well as Full Moon Meditations each month, and doing the work with the Horse Teachers.
- Nicola holds Partners Programs with the Horses, this is a relationships building workshop, for partners (romantic or not) family members and friendships. Here we can provide healthy tools to assist you in supporting one another, rather than the push and pull approach that can be so unhelpful for any kind of trauma.
- Nicola offers a "Trauma Informed Approach" to all of her work, offering one on one support, as well as group workshops.
- Her specialties are Grief, Cancer Survivors (including their families and close friends) as if one member of the family has cancer, it affects everyone close to them.
- She also specialises in Childhood Trauma (including adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse) Nicola is a fully trained Peer Support Facilitator, also for Adult Survivors of Childhood Sexual Abuse, and has been holding space in this area since 2014, with group workshops and one on one support at www.thegatehouse.org since 2017. This charity has been set up since 1998, and is well respected in the mental health community.
- If you feel pulled to work with Nicola she is happy to talk with you over the phone to see if you feel a connection.

- Horses can bring you back in touch with yourself! Through equine-assisted therapy, the horses touch the very heart of the human spirit. It is that part of our self that restores our wonder at the world and awakens our belief in magic, dreams, and possibilities. The power, beauty and spirit of horses capture our imagination! Who hasn’t yearned for the sweeping freedom horses inspire, and to bring that feeling of deep connection into our lives? Horses have an innate understanding of what we are experiencing and how to connect with us. There is no riding involved thereby no horse experience is necessary in order to relate to our gentle horses.
