About me
In Nature, I find myself
Although raised in an urban environment, I have always felt most at home in nature. From a young age, I sensed that all living things communicate, often beyond words.äbi energia.
Reflecting on my journey, my first profound experiences of pure connection came through my interactions with animals. Throughout my life, they have been unwavering companions and wise guides in their own unique way.
Beyond my spiritual interests, my childhood home nurtured a deep curiosity to perceive and explore the unseen layers of the world.
Ask, and you will receive life has gifted me with profoundly rich and transformative experiences, inspiring me to deeply explore and cultivate my inner resources.
This is a deliberately chosen journey, one that continues to uncover deeper layers of understanding, connection, and the ability to truly value oneself and the world around us.
To this day, I feel that it was not I who chose the horses; rather, they entered my life, one by one, to lead me toward a deeper connection with myself, both in life and in my work.
Academic background
Building Knowledge and Skills
I hold a master’s degree in psychology and special education counseling and spent 10 years in the doctoral program for educational sciences at Tallinn University. Although I didn’t complete my dissertation, which focused on working with humans and horses, I plan to write a book that shares my insights and includes case studies, offering a more personal and accessible perspective than a traditional academic paper.
In addition to holding a diploma in equine-assisted therapy, I graduated from the Academy for Coaching with Horses in the United States and am currently advancing my expertise in trauma coaching in the UK.
For several years, I served as a guest lecturer at Tallinn University, as well as occasionally at other educational institutions.
I didn’t start working with people immediately after completing my university studies. Instead, life led me to explore critical situations and traumas, teaching me to find clarity and solutions in seemingly impossible circumstances. These experiences deepened my understanding of people, allowing me to uncover the layers beneath their outward behavior.
Horses have been an essential part of my work since 2007. Rather than teaching riding, I focus on fostering self-awareness and expanding perception. I guide individuals in attuning to their bodies, understanding their emotional states, and uncovering underlying thought patterns.
Work
Facilitating Inner Growth
The expertise and therapeutic techniques I’ve developed over the years all serve one core purpose: to help individuals connect deeply with themselves and gain clarity about their inner world. The answers we often seek are already within us.
My work is grounded in body awareness,which forms the basis for meaningful growth and self-discovery.
Horses are essential partners in this process—they guide us with honesty and depth, making it impossible to stay on the surface.
My co-facilitators
Many of the trainings and workshops we offer are often done as a team.
We are all connected by shared values, the joy of collaboration, and long-standing friendships.

Four-legged friends
Our animals play a central role in our work:
they provide genuine friendship, non-judgmental honesty, and a playful yet unwavering attitude
towards everything that might otherwise cause a person to feel uneasy.
Inspired by Nature
The magic of the place
When creating our center, we were guided by the belief that the land we live on is a gift entrusted to us by life—a responsibility to be met with care and respect.
Rooted in this principle, the center offers everyone who visits an opportunity to draw inspiration from the beauty and essence of life itself.
