The School Within® | Nature Based & Equine-Assisted Therapy
“Transformational! Learned more in one of Karin’s sessions than in years of talk therapy.”
A Path of Purpose
The School Within is a therapeutic philosophy rooted in the awakening of human consciousness and the cultivation of deep kinship with all of life. We work primarily in nature, with the assistance of horses.
Transforming traditional family systems therapy, we support each individual member of a family as an autonomous and independent entity. Additionally we work towards achieving interdependence, in order to benefit the greatest good of all. Horses act as our sovereign teachers and a direct biological mirror to the human nervous system.
Three pathways — contemplative counseling, equine-assisted therapy, and coaching certification — meeting you where you are.
