Tame your Anxiety
Ride with Confidence
Overcoming Performance Barriers: Healing Trauma in the Saddle
For all levels and disciplines
Equestrians understand the undeniable connection between mental health and performance. Horseback riding is a mental challenge as much as a physical one, with the rider’s mindset directly impacting the horse’s experience and vice versa the horse influencing the rider . Trauma from injuries for both of them, competition, or personal life can affect rider and horse's ability to connect with each other, maintain focus, and stay confident.
Performance anxiety is not confined to the rider; it permeates the reins, breath, and nervous system. Consequently, I assist riders and their horses in regulating anxiety and restoring emotional balance through gentle and effective support that integrates: Energy Psychology & Energy Healing.
This approach enables riders to attain a
- State of Groundedness
- Focus, and
- Alignment,
thereby facilitating seamless performance free from apprehension.
Ride with Calm Compete with Confidence Connect with Trust
When the Rider Calms, the Horse Follows
Horses are deeply intuitive. They feel our tension, our fear, our pressure to perform.
By supporting the rider's emotional and energetic state, we create safety and clarity for the horse-allowing both to move, perform, and connect with each other with ease.
This work is gentle, respectful, and tailored to the unique bond between you and your horse.
This is not about "fixing" you and your horse
It’s about
- creating safety,
- regulating the nervous system, and
- restoring alignment — emotionally, energetically, and physically.
When the rider feels calm and grounded, the horse feels it.
When the horse feels safe, the rider relaxes.
When both nervous systems are regulated, confidence and performance naturally emerge.
Who is this work for?
Riders who:
- Experience Performance Anxiety, nerves, or fear of mistakes.

Healing Stories
Reduce inflammation in legs
"Nikko, a beautiful retired race horse. He got inflammation in his 4 knee joints. They were even open wounds that were not closing.
The normal care to reduce inflammation was not really working in spite of changing the bandages daily.
Isabelle did some few sessions of Dolphin Energy Healing. After the first session we could notice a significance reduction of the inflammation which subsequently started to reduce at a faster pace.
Nikko was able to walk much better. The wounds started to close down finally. Soon he was enjoying his walks again as a happy boy."
Returning to Joy
“Grissy was feeling very lonely as she was in a private boarding facility as her owner wasn't able to be frequently with her. I did a session with her.
At the beginning she was very shy and was wondering what was going on as she could feel something. We stopped the session and let her walk around and after we continue the session. At one point she came closer and hugged me on her own, see photo. She was very calm and enjoyed the healing. From that day on she was enjoying her life again sharing the pasture with the other horses.“
Healing from abuse
Patricia Broesma, a therapeutic riding professional in Asland, OR, invited me to do some healing to a horse which has been mistreated. The healing went very smoothly. He was very receptive and very open to receive the healing.
Something extraordinary happened as his four legged friends dog and cat were surrounding him in a circle making sure he was safe during the healing. It was endearing to see the care from his fury friends. In a way they also participated in the healing. They remained till the end of one hour session and even stayed longer surrounding their beloved friend with love and comfort. They all felt very serene and happy after."
