Horse Wisdom is a powerful, unique, holistic approach to horse-human relationships. I use horse wisdom inspired coaching-counseling methods to help humans experiencing disharmony, improve relationship harmony.
Horses are universal & non-judgemental. As sentient beings, they offer unconditional love and mirror human emotions to help people heal.
What is HORSE Wisdom?
- Apply herd dynamics to family dynamics
- Elevate consciousness
- Understand human emotions
- Create a safe place to heal
- Release stress faster & more deeply
- Stay grounded & connect with Spirit
Families experience the multidimensional, multifaceted benefits by working with the Spirit of the horse. These benefits are amplified by practicing the SUPER TOOLS of EFT/Tapping, Breathwork, Brain & Body Education and Sustainable Living Practices. Families fill their ‘saddle bags’ full of skills to achieve personal development, emotional regulation, spiritual connection, physical well-being, mental clarity, social confidence and groundedness.

Home school mum, Brand Partner Young Living Essential OIls, NC, USA
"My daughter had a powerful 2 hour ‘holistic horse wisdom' lesson today with an incredible therapist. I was able to learn too, and was overwhelmed at one point, to tears even, with the beauty we experienced.
We learned about respecting space, intuition, leading, what a personal bubble is, how to be self-aware, boundaries. Wow, some big life lessons in the context of a beautiful red barn, the smells of leather and horses, and kind, experienced teachers who generously shared their time and knowledge. Reach out to Courtney. She’s wonderful!”

"The plan that we followed included play therapy with toy ponies, which she (my 8 year old daughter) really enjoyed and served a purpose of allowing her to freely express what was going on for her, using the horses to mimic her own world. Courtney also engaged in recognizing and understanding emotions through facial expressions and other resources which helped my daughter to recognize strong feelings. Courtney then began to introduce energetic tools such as tapping and other somatic tools which were highly effective when my daughter began to use them. We as a family especially enjoyed tapping together and this has become an important part of our family wellness practice."

Mum, NZ Teacher, wife
"I had the incredible opportunity to visit the Bay of Islands for a three-day retreat at Cherry Cottage, and it was truly life-changing. Initially, I went with the intention of resetting and learning healthier habits to bring back to my whānau (family), but I gained so much more than I expected.
Not only did I learn about supplements and healthier kai (food) options, but I also completed a sugar detox and participated in daily energy challenges—practices I’ve successfully incorporated into my everyday life. A highlight of the retreat was being part of Courtney's Tapping Tuesday live session. It was my first introduction to tapping as a tool for self-regulation in motherhood, and after a powerful session, Courtney guided me even deeper, helping me connect with emotions I had been suppressing in my parenting journey. The experience was invaluable, and I’m excited to continue my growth by joining the upcoming Rarotonga retreat. I highly recommend Courtney’s work to anyone looking for meaningful transformation and holistic well-being."
