Hallie Elizabeth Sheade, a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S) and Registered Play Therapist (RPT), is a dedicated advocate for the transformative power of the horse-human relationship in fostering growth and healing. With a Ph.D. in Counseling from the University of North Texas, she has developed two innovative models for equine-assisted therapy: Relational Equine-Partnered Counseling for older children, adolescents, and adults, and Equine-Partnered Play Therapy for young children. Hallie believes that horses possess an extraordinary ability to perceive human experiences and provide valuable feedback during interactions, helping individuals gain insights into their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. The horse serves as a true partner in the healing journey, offering clients the opportunity to explore and cultivate new, healthier ways of engaging with the world and confronting life's challenges.
