Welcome — I’m Sandra.

​

I’m glad you’ve found your way here. This space is designed to give you a sense of the work I do and whether Mindwise Equestrian feels like a fit for you.

​

My journey began in the saddle, chasing beef cattle, and grew into a life working with horses, people, and living systems. Studying how horses think and learn sparked my curiosity about the human mind, which led to a double degree in Psychology & Counselling.

​

Today, I work as a therapeutic counsellor, supporting families through a community NGO, and guiding equestrians — and non-equestrians — in private practice. Along the way, there’s usually a dash of equestrian coaching for fun.

​

Whether counselling, coaching, or working with horses, my approach draws on trauma-informed care, attachment psychology, coaching, and mindfulness. The goal is always the same: to navigate challenges, notice patterns, and support practical, grounded change.

​

If you’re here to explore your life, your relationships, your work, or your horses, this space invites curiosity, reflection, and gentle action.

​

I’m glad you’re here, and I’m excited to see what might emerge.
