Leading you to a life well-lived, one step at a time

At Oxbow EFC, we believe that meaningful change starts with self-awareness. Horses naturally reflect our emotions and behaviors without judgment, revealing deep truths about our inmost selves. Our mission is to help you harness these insights to unlock your full potential.

You’ve gone with the flow. Now what?

You’ve spent years doing what you thought was right—following the expected path, meeting the demands of career, family, and daily life.

Yet despite checking all the boxes, something is missing.

You’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and disconnected from the sense of purpose that once energized you.

The future seems uncertain, and the life you are living has little in common with the life you desire.

It’s time to take the reins and steer your life in a direction that feels true.

The path forward starts here

Our work together begins by guiding you back to your core values and goals so you can navigate life with intention. Through tailored coaching programs and a unique partnership with horses, we help provide the clarity and balance needed to reconnect with your authentic self. Together, we’ll dismantle old patterns that have kept you stuck, reignite your sense of purpose, and make meaningful strides toward the life you’ve always envisioned— one filled with joy and passion.

“No philosophers so thoroughly comprehend us as a dogs and horses.”
— Herman Melville

Why Equine Facilitated Coaching?

Equine-facilitated coaching (EFC) offers a dynamic path to personal growth. Horses, with their natural sensitivity to human emotions, instinctively respond to what you’re feeling, bringing hidden patterns and obstacles to light.

Through this intuitive partnership, you can transform the way you approach life, relationships, and work by,

  • Deepening your self-awareness with a clear, supportive perspective on your experiences and frustrations.

  • Achieving emotional balance through real-time feedback that grounds you in the present moment.

  • Cutting the noise by confronting thought patterns and behaviors that no longer serve you or your goals.

  • Breaking free from old scripts and reigniting your sense of purpose with hands-on, intuitive guidance.

  • Building genuine confidence as you embrace new and more authentic ways of responding to the dominating forces in your life.
