Jennifer Lynn Kapelos is a compassionate counselor, LMHCA, DHA, dedicated to supporting preteens, teens, adults, and elders facing challenges such as depression, trauma and PTSD, and anxiety. With a focus on equine-assisted therapy through the Eagala model, she empowers clients to choose their pace and areas to work on. Clients who have undergone trauma or struggle with emotional difficulties can find comfort and reflection in the hyper-vigilant nature of horses, as they mirror the emotions felt by their human counterparts. Jennifer facilitates an environment where clients can process their experiences at their own speed while fostering their emerging strengths. She conducts sessions across several locations in Western Washington, where the therapy often unfolds outdoors amidst scenic fields, mountains, and wildlife, allowing for a tranquil and engaging therapeutic experience. The presence of other animals, such as goats, can further enrich the healing journey, integrating metaphors and neutral language to create a safe and open space. By establishing a trusting relationship with horses that treat individuals as part of their herd, clients can gain invaluable feelings of acceptance and control in their therapeutic journey.
