Equine Assisted Meditation Group Sessions
With Karin (K.D.) Yapalater, Integrative Health Counselor & Equine Specialist
“Transformational! Learned more in one of Karin’s sessions than in years of talk therapy.”
Horses reflect human energy with absolute honesty. Deeply transformational, private counseling sessions at the Green School in Sagaponack, NY offer individuals and families a unique and confidential space in nature to heal, slow down, regulate emotions, and rebuild connection. Guided by K.D. and the herd, this nature-based practice requires no riding or prior horse experience. Sessions provide individuals and families effective coping strategies to heal anxiety, stress, or trauma, and strengthen conscious communication, emotional intelligence, and authentic presence.
Private 1:1 and group counseling nature based sessions on the farm also available.
Upcoming Group Sessions
Limited spaces: July 16, 23, 30 @ 5:30 pm
