For Clients
Is counselling for me?
I offer a confidential, supportive, safe space where you will be respected and accepted for who you are.
I will truly listen to you, trying as far as possible to understand things from your point of view, and support you while you unravel and manage experiences, anxieties and concerns.
You can sit or walk with me while you express difficult or painful feelings and emotions, with no judgement or expectation.
If you decide to commit to the process, profound insight and positive change can happen.
You can develop greater self awareness, build resilience and increase your feeling of self-worth, which in turn empowers you and enables you to find your own solutions to move on.
What is Equine Assisted Therapy?
Horses are truly non-judgemental, they accept you for who you are. Horses don't ask questions and won't tell you what to do. You don't need to talk about your experiences; in building trust and connection with the horse, you can find the space to be...
You don't need any experience with horses and there is no riding involved.
We will slow down and observe the animals at rest and play in their own space.
When and if it feels right for you and the animals, you can begin to interact with them through touch, petting, brushing, or simply standing closer to them.
How much will it cost?
Initial consultation: free of charge.To learn more, send me an email to book an initial twenty-minute telephone or video call. There is absolutely no pressure to proceed; the decision is yours.
Counselling Sessions: £35 an hour. It is best to meet regularly, and the frequency and number of sessions can vary from just a few to a long-term commitment. This all depends on your needs, and we will regularly discuss how you feel things are going for you and how you want to proceed.
Equine Assisted Sessions: £65 for 90 minutes. The first session/assessment is done face to face or online at the price of a counselling session. If you decide you want to go ahead, you will need to get to the location yourself (it's 25 minutes from Nairn or Inverness)
Please feel free to contact me by email if you have any questions. jane@therowantree.org. I will try my best to reply to you within 48 hours.
The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.
