** NOTE for 2024 we are planning to offer group only bookings. We are having a very busy year so aren't going to plan our typical workshop dates. However, if you have a group of colleagues and would like to book an intro or professional development workshop, please get in touch! We will be able to put together a workshop to suit your needs. Costs are below. 


3-Day Equine-Assisted Therapy Workshop


🐴 2024 dates to come! (Will be when the weather cools down - in the meantime, private group bookings will be available upon request). 

🐴 Learn how to facilitate Equine Assisted Therapy as an Allied Health professional. We cover NDIS, Medicare & AHPRA requirements while teaching you how to prepare horses for therapy work and how to design and facilitate an evidence-based intervention that meets the high professional standards required in the allied health field. 

🐴 Facilitated by Samantha King - Psychologist & owner of PAAW (multi-disciplinary canine assisted therapy clinic), owner & head trainer at Therapy Dogs Australia (therapy dog training @therapydogsaustralia) & assistant trainer for The Brumby Project @thebrumbyproject

🐴 Co-facilitated by the incredibly knowledgeable horsewoman Tamara Janus @tj_equine who will assist you with refining your horse handling skills and general horse knowledge.

🐴 Work with 5 brumbies - all transitioned from wild living to domestic for a career in equine assisted therapy. 

🐴 Upper Caboolture, QLD 

🐴 $880

🐴 5 spaces per workshop 


**International attendees are welcome. 


We will be teaching you horse-handling skills, however this 3-day workshop does not equip you with enough horsemanship to provide equine therapy on your own. This workshop will serve as either an introduction to the field, or a professional development opportunity for those already in the field. Your core training to become and equine-assisted therapist will be extensive, it is not something that can be covered in a 3-day workshop. 


Previous horse handling experience is a benefit, but not compulsory. 

The workshop is all ground work (as is our equine-therapy style).

This workshop is suitable for clinicians who are already working with horses in therapy, who want to start their equine therapy journey, or who are working/wanting to work alongside an equine specialist in their therapy sessions. 


We will be spending 3 days together getting to know the horses (brumbies, who have been trained specifically for therapy), teaching you how to structure an equine-assisted session, doing role plays and skill development in ethical horsemanship. Topics such as equine body language and learning theory will be applied to horsemanship skills. 


This is a hands-on workshop, expect to be up and about for 3 days!
