Deepening the Connection: Brumbies, Psychedelic Integration & New Beginnings 🌿✨

I’ve been a little quiet online lately, but there’s been plenty happening behind the scenes!

I’m finishing my third year of my Master’s in Gestalt Therapy and have just completed training in psychedelic-assisted therapy. I’m excited to now offer Gestalt-informed psychedelic integration support through Wisdom of the Brumby.

There are some exciting changes on the horizon too, including a planned relocation to the Sunshine Coast early in the new year, with our beautiful brumbies, of course! 🐴

Watch this space. I look forward to sharing more with you soon.

A friend of mine just shared this with me! This is so interesting, it details the history and heritage of the brumbies.

A community-led project is exploring the history of how some of K'gari's brumby population were sent to the frontline in World War I from a unique perspective.

Sometimes, the most meaningful moments happen without words. 🤍

A quiet breath.
A gentle presence.
A soft place to simply be.

Horses don’t ask us to explain ourselves or have everything figured out. They meet us exactly where we are, and remind us that connection can be felt, not forced.

This is the heart of what we offer at Wisdom of the Brumby: a space to slow down, feel supported and reconnect with yourself through the quiet wisdom of horses. 🌿🐴

This is what safety can look like. 🤎

A body softened.
A nervous system at rest.
No need to be alert, perform or do anything at all.

Horses remind us that rest is not something we need to earn. Sometimes, the most healing thing we can do is allow ourselves to pause, soften and simply be.

At Wisdom of the Brumby, there is space for all of you, including the parts that are tired from holding everything together.

Come as you are. The herd will meet you there. 🌿🐴

🌿 WOMEN IN THE CHANGING FIELD 🌿

A Peri and Menopause & Midlife Equine-Supported Immersion

“Where did I go in all of this?”

Midlife can bring profound change, in our bodies, emotions, relationships and even our sense of who we are.

But what if, instead of simply managing menopause, we created space to understand it, talk honestly about it and reconnect with ourselves?

Join us for an intimate day with the brumbies, bringing together menopause knowledge with real conversations, embodied learning and lasting change.

Together we’ll explore the changing body and brain, identity and emotions, nervous system regulation and the transition through midlife.

🌿 Sunday 27 September | 9am–3:30pm
🌿 Limited to just 10 women
🌿 $295 – morning tea & nourishing lunch included

Real conversations • Embodied learning • Lasting change

A day to pause, reconnect and remember you. 🤎

🌿 Seeking a Volunteer Participant for Student Gestalt Therapy Sessions – North Brisbane (4017 area)

As I continue through my 3rd year of Master’s studies in Gestalt Therapy, I am now looking for one volunteer participant to support the next stage of my clinical learning and assessment.

I am seeking one adult participant who is local to North Brisbane, ideally around the 4017 area, and would be available to attend approximately 4–6 face-to-face sessions before November 2026.

Sessions will be approximately 50 minutes, held in a private room-based setting, and are offered at no cost as part of my student assessment requirements.

As part of the university assessment process, sessions will need to be video recorded, with selected material viewed by my facilitator/supervisor for supervision and assessment purposes. This will be fully discussed with you beforehand so that you understand the process and can provide informed consent.

🌿 What is Gestalt Therapy?

Gestalt therapy is a relational and present-centred approach to therapy. Rather than focusing only on past experiences or trying to immediately “fix” a problem, Gestalt therapy invites us to become curious about what is happening in the present moment — our thoughts, emotions, bodily sensations, patterns and ways of relating to ourselves and others.

It can be a gentle but meaningful process of developing greater awareness and understanding of yourself and how you move through the world.

To participate, you would need to:

• Be 18 years or older
• Be able to attend face-to-face sessions in the North Brisbane / 4017 area
• Ideally be someone I do not already know personally or have previously worked with therapeutically
• Be available for approximately 4–6 sessions before November 2026
• Be comfortable with the sessions being recorded for my university assessment requirements
• Be open to an initial screening conversation so that we can make sure the process is appropriate, safe and clearly understood

As this forms part of my supervised student learning, clear boundaries, confidentiality, informed consent and suitability are really important.

There is no cost to participate.

If this speaks to you, or you know someone who may be interested, please feel welcome to send me a private message and I can provide further information. 🌿

🐴 What if therapy wasn’t always about going back into the past?

Gestalt therapy invites us into the here and now, noticing what is happening within us, between us, and around us in this very moment.

And this is where horses can be extraordinary mentors.

As prey animals, horses live deeply in the present. They notice subtle shifts in energy, body language, boundaries and connection, often reflecting back what is showing up for us before we’ve even found the words for it.

There’s no judgement. No need to have the “right” thing to say. Just an opportunity to slow down, become curious, and notice.

Sometimes, what emerges in that space can be incredibly powerful and profound. 🌿

Meet the beautiful rescued brumbies of Wisdom of the Brumby and discover a different way of experiencing therapy. 🤎
