Heartfelt Testimonials from Our Clients

” Working with Jennifer and her horses changed my life. I came in carrying years of trauma and emotional numbness, and I left feeling seen, grounded, and open again. The horses knew what I couldn’t say, and Jennifer created the safest space I’ve ever been in. This program is magic.

~Megan T., Reno, NV

”The Healing Through Horses program was unlike anything I’ve ever done. I thought I was just going to brush a horse. What I got instead was deep emotional release, trust-building, and the beginning of a healing journey I didn’t even know I  needed .”

” Jennifer has a true gift for reading horses and releasing tension in a way. I’ve never seen before. My mare had been cranky and stiff-after just one session, she moved more freely and looked more relaxed than she had in months.”                                                        ~Tara S., Fallon, NV

” Our gelding was recovering from an injury and just wasn’t himself. Jennifer‘s bodywork  helped not just physically, but emotionally too. He softened, began to trust Moore, and his healing accelerated. We now schedule regular sessions because the difference is that noticeable.

~Mark and Julie P., Fernley, NV

Connection Beyond Words                                               “ I never expected a horse to ‘see’ me in a way that people couldn’t. During my sessions with Jennifer, there was a moment where the horse I was with just stood near me-calm, present and totally in tune. I burst into tears, not out of sadness, but from this deep feeling of being accepted and safe this simple moment of connection cracked something open in me. I’ve done years of talk therapy, but nothing has brought me into my body and heart the way this work has.  I’m so grateful for Jennifer and her horses. They’re the most honest mirrors I’ve ever stood in front of.”

The Horse Chose Me.                                      “When I first came to Healing Through Horses, I was carrying so much anxiety I could barely breathe. I didn’t know anything about horses, but one horse walked up to me, put their nose gently to my shoulder, and just stayed. That connection.-without needing me to explain-shifted something inside me. Jennifer held the space with such calm presence, helping me interpret what I was feeling without pressure. That day changed how I relate to myself and the world. Horses really do heal, and Jennifer guides that process beautifully.”                                                   ~Marcus L., Minden, NV

”What surprised me most with how much happened in the stillness. Just standing next to a horse, feeling its presence, it’s calmness-I realized how long I have been living in survival mode. The horse didn’t judge me or try to fix me. She just accepted me. Jennifer helped me stay present with that moment, and something in me shifted. I’ve done a lot of therapy, but this experience touched something deeper. I left feeling more whole than I’ve felt in years.”                       ~Daniel R., Reno, NV. 

”Before working with Jennifer, I had no idea how deeply a horse could impact me. I came in, feeling numb and disconnected-from myself, from other people, from everything. But the horse I was paired with stood with me, matched my breathing, and somehow made space for what I was feeling. I didn’t have to explain anything-he just knew. That connection cracked something open in me, in the gentlest way possible. For the first time in a long time, I felt safe to be exactly where I was.”                                  ~Emily T., Fallon, NV

”When I came to Horse Connection, I didn’t want to ride-I wanted to be. As I brushed the horses, neck and shoulder, feeling its steady, warm breath, something inside me softened. The horse mirrored my energy; as I slowed and settled, she relaxed too. That simple act-grooming without agenda-allowed me to finally feel seen and safe. In that space, I discovered a calm I’d forgotten existed. I walked away feeling that I knew horses better than I ever have. Not to mention that I felt more embodied, centered, and emotionally grounded.”                                                                          ~Tori T., Reno, NV

”I entered the paddock, anxious and overwhelmed. I didn’t rid— I just stood by the horse and spent time grooming and doing gentle ground-manner exercise exercises: leading, silhouette, mindful stroking. The horse leaned into my touch, responded to my breath, and offered trust. In return, I felt something open inside me. No words needed. Groundwork became a mutual dance-clear boundaries, soft presence, shared stillness. This non-riding connection shifted my nervous system. I left with a renewed sense of self-trust and emotional clarity.” 

~Kaleigh P., Washoe City, NV

”I wasn’t looking to ride-I just wanted to feel connected again, to something real. During my first horse connection session, I stood quietly beside the horse, brushing her coat and learning how to lead with intention, the horse responded to my energy-not my words-and taught me more about presence in those few minutes than any self help book ever has. I felt calm, grounded, and deeply connected-not just to the horse, but to myself. It was healing without pressure. Just being there was enough.”                                        ~Leah M., Sparks, NV
