A.C.E. YOUR HORSE- HUMAN PARTNERSHIP
​Through Awareness, Connection & Enhancement

Are you prepared to do the work on yourself to really make a difference in your Horse-Human Partnership?

If so, then I can take you on a journey of discovery that will amaze, excite, stretch, challenge and empower you to create the person you were meant to be. A place for safe, creative, non-judgmental learning and growth for real lasting change. 

​I combine my passion & knowledge of horses and humans to help the understand themselves and educate them on much better ways through awareness, connection and enhancement on the core fundamentals of psychology, biology and relationships.

This is about doing the REAL work on yourself and making REAL, life long changes in the areas that have been holding you back from truly becoming who you were meant to be.

This unique collaboration bridges the gap between horses and humans by combining psychology, physiology, and relational aspects to create greater wisdom in our horse - human partnership.

This very special journey blends both my worlds- Horses & Humans
​

Areas covered in the work I do focuses on a deep understanding of key human aspects such as nervous system regulation, the language of the body, emotional regulation system, thinking patterns & core belief’s, relational patterns & behaviours. Through deepening your understanding and awareness you will create choice to change old, out dated tools and behaviours. This comprehensive perspective emphasises the vital link between mind, body, and spirit, empowering you to make real life, life long changes that impact many areas of your life. This work has a ripple effect into all aspects of you life including your horse-human partnership, family, work and the wider community.

​Curious about my journey?

​​I have been helping people for over 35 years within health care as a Registered Nurse with a clinical background in ED, Infection Control, Patient Safety, Quality and Risk I have stood beside many people during the darkest times of their lives and I have learnt a great deal of wisdom about human strength and resilience which forms a core part of my work.
Understanding human behaviour and how we 'tick 'and supporting people through change on a deeper level then took me along the path of becoming a Psychotherapist & Clinical Counsellor.

My extensive experience and studies into the complexity of humans and how to adapt & change enables me to educate people from a psychological, biological and social aspect and giving them practical tools to enhance all aspects of their health and well-being

​The other component of this program I bring into this my lifelong knowledge & passion for nature & animals. Born into 1st & 2nd world war soldier settler farmers- dairy, cattle & pigs & cropping I know first-hand the challenges & triumphs living on the land & caring for animals entails. My obsession with horses pretty much began at birth despite my family being non-horsey. My journey to learn about horses has been faced with many challenges & took me along a very varied path. I began just bush riding, bareback at the age of 10 on a grey, green broken mare. She taught me a great deal about falling off, catching runaways, tears, dirt, fun freedom, adventures, the wind in my face & the sound of hooves pounding the road.
​
​My very early years were wandering around the paddocks as child and my obsession with the Silver Brumby books. All etched deep in my wiring was the need to connect with my horse through the heart, soul & willing mind. That philosophy is very much present with every aspect of the work I do now with my herd. ​

I have now spent over 40 years breeding and educating horses, am an Equine AI Technician and a certified barefoot practitioner and have a Quarter Horse stud in the Gold Coast Hinterland called Ricinda Ranch. Our breeding program focuses on versatile level headed trainable working line Quarter Horses. My aim is to breed horses that are also wired for connection with people, are curious & confident partners. They are suited for all levels of riders from people that want a best buddy to wanted along the trails to those wanting to head out into the competition world.
