Fear. Although equine-assisted therapy has been shown to be helpful in the treatment of anxiety, a client may fear being around a large horse and not feel motivated to attend this type of treatment. There may also be a traumatic memory involving animals that would prevent someone from being willing to participate. Anxiety can be helped by increasing self esteem and leadership skills.

Anxiety is a very common occurrence and some anxiety can be a good thing. Often, though, we become so full of fear and anxiety to the point that it is debilitating and holding us back from moving forward in our lives in meaningful ways. It can get in the way of our ability to feel confident and connect with others. I enjoy work with individuals to help them discover what is, versus what could be and to reprogram their minds to be present and available.
All of us feel anxious sometimes, and anxiety is a normal part of life. Anxiety runs on a continuum from everyday stress to the heightened "fight or flight" response that is activated in trauma. Our brain is a problem-finding, problem-fixing machine. Our brain's job is not to make us happy, but to keep us safe.
So our brain is doing its job to keep us safe when it sends feelings of worry or anxiety as a danger signal. This is often a helpful warning, telling us to proceed with caution.
