Equine Behaviour and Psychology

Tailored horse behaviour solutions for happier horses, and their humans

Equine Behaviour and Psychology Specialist

Looking for help with your horse’s behaviour?

I understand that facing a challenge with your horse can be very distressing. Knowing where to turn for the right advice for your individual horse can be confusing.

As a professionally qualified, registered and insured Equine Psychology Specialist I can help. By practically applying the science of equine behaviour, ethology and learning, I will help you to more fully understand your horse. My approach is akin to that of an Equine Behaviourist with the addition of applying proven Psychological models to my practice.

I love supporting people to enjoy safer, wiser and happier partnerships with their beloved horses.

Unwanted horse behaviour can develop at any time, for a multiplicity of reasons. Whether you are a novice or experienced horse owner, if concerned about any handling or ridden challenge I can help.

Getting the right advice

To every problem there is a solution! Every horse is individual, so all aspects of their environment, management and training will be taken into account. I will explain WHY the behaviour is happening, offer immediate advice and support you to address things in only a kind and positive way.

You’ll gain a better understanding of your horse and as a result feel empowered to make informed choices, and more confidently able to manage in any handling or ridden situation.

Based on Essex/Suffolk/Cambs border I cover neighbouring counties and beyond (including overseas).
