Angela has more than 26 years of experience in diverse therapeutic and coaching settings, including dolphin-assisted therapy, equine-assisted therapy, wilderness experience, traditional counseling, and therapy in youth sober living homes and at-risk youth camps.
This year is Angela's 8th year in business, providing equine-assisted and cane-assisted coaching to her multiple behavioral, recovery, and sex trafficked and domestic abuse survivors facilities contracts here in the Valley. Angela and her team transport their horses and dogs to the sites to provide services to their clients & patients. Angela also sets up programs outside of Arizona.
Angela in her private practice also works with teens, adults, couples, and families faced with various emotional and mental challenges that have them stuck and feeling unable to move forward in their lives. Angela is passionate about helping people to identify the "stuckness" and remove the blocks while supporting the client towards healing the wounds so that their new sense of self can emerge.
Angela’s primary focus is transformation and her passion is to assist others in their transformation journey. Through the horses' power and ability to hold heart space, while they gently provide a mirror to our blind spots, so we can see what needs repair and love. It is always done in a safe and sacred space. When a horse touches our heart we are never the same ... our heart wants to feel more of that!
Angela is certified in Gestalt Equine Psychotherapy and holds an MA in Transpersonal Counseling Psychology, a BA in Human Development, and an AA in Early Childhood Development. Angela does profound work with her clients by integrating her education and natural abilities and her love of people and animals.
