Coaching and guidance for horse and human

Do you feel there is space to refine the partnership between you and your horse? Horses know who we are before we do. They respond not just to what we ask of them, but to everything we carry: our tension, our uncertainty, our expectations, our dreams and wishes.

I offer a reflective space for people with horses who sense that something deeper is influencing the human-horse partnership. Through reflection, energetic work, and guidance, I help humans understand themselves more clearly so the horse no longer has to carry what isn't theirs.

The path forward is rarely about doing more or trying harder. It begins with peeling back the layers: understanding who you truly are, seeing your horse for who they truly are, and discovering how the two of you can come closer together.

Together we will focus on progress that feels achievable, sustainable and rewarding, while honouring the different energy, strengths and limitations that are present.

Create a deeper relationship with your horse by exploring, seeing, understanding and knowing who you are

I am here for you as your guide to see how your patterns, behaviours and presence influence your horse and the relationship you share. Sometimes the energy flow between two beings is obstructed and can easily be cleared, other times bringing the human and the horse closer together needs more exploration and work.

I work with Reiki healing, guided reflection, groundwork and riding observations as tools to support you in this process.

Relational awareness

My work supports presence, awareness, and mutual calm, not performance or technique.

Client stories

"Siets connected remotely with my cat Ravi and the information she relayed was accurate and touching. It didn’t only show me what Ravi was dealing with, it also gave me a sense of clarity. Siets mentioned a very specific detail that could have only been communicated to her by Ravi. This showed me that she was really connected to him.

Through this kind and loving session, I know have valuable information that helps me understand Ravi better. I would recommend Siets to anyone with animals they love in their care."

"We had a bit of a fright with our dog Otto and asked Siets if she could check in with him after he had a seizure. The feedback we received about the situation leading up to the seizure was spot-on and a wake-up call at the same time. Siets highlighted exactly where the pain point was which allowed us to take immediate action.

Otto received Reiki several times over the weeks, in order to restore balance and calm for him and the environment that he was in. He would be tired after a session and at the same time he was more relaxed and at ease."

- Elisabeth, Belgium

''Siets and I have known each other for several years, and I have studied with her on and off again for about 2 years, including a week long intensive on my farm. As a working trainer, coach and clinician myself, I am very discerning about who I choose to guide, teach and coach me. Siets was a perfect fit.

Firstly, she is very competent in her modality of training of the horse. The modality she is working with is different to mine, but very in alignment and she succeeded at sharing valuable training tools with me that my horses and clients continue to benefit from. It was a natural improvement to my program without damaging the integrity of my program.

Secondly, she is competent in her treatment of people and animals. Gentle, but firm, clear but curious, her eye misses nothing, and know exactly when to offer feedback, and when to hold space quietly while you try. She offers a two way dialogue so that both her and who she is teaching can come to mutual conclusions on the goals of the work, and has no problem being creative with her own modality to have it fit who she is teaching.

Thirdly, Siets is a good, kind and compassionate person with wonderful energy and sense of humor. There is no ulterior motive, competitiveness or nastiness here one has to watch out for. Strong recommend for any horse person looking to study with a safe, confident, competent and compassionate coach looking to guide them towards their goals.''

There will be times when standing alone feels too hard, too scary, and we’ll doubt our ability to make our way through the uncertainty. Someone, somewhere, will say, ‘Don’t do it. You don’t have what it takes to survive the wilderness.’ This is when you reach deep into your wild heart and remind yourself, ‘I am the wilderness'. - Brene Brown
