The Authentic Practitioner

July 27 or September 25

Reclaiming Clinical Confidence Through Horse-Led Reflection

As clinicians you often pend your days holding space for others, navigating complex trauma, and guiding healing. In your downtime, there is a lingering whisper: “What if they find out I’m lost and just figuring this out?” Imposter syndrome loves to tap into deeply empathetic fields, leading to chronic burnout and self-doubt.

This immersive, three-hour experiential workshop invites you to spend the morning in connection to the land and horses. Horses don’t care about your credentials, your resume, or your perfect clinical notes—they respond to your authentic, present-moment energy.

In this unique unmounted space, you will partner with the herd to uncover where your self-doubt hides, practice embodied boundary-setting, and realign with your innate clinical wisdom. No horse experience is required; all interactions are on the ground.

Join us to reconnect with the grounded, capable practitioner you already are.

Gordon's Green Gables sits on the traditional land of the Dakota, Sioux, Anishinabe, Chippewa, and Ojibwe peoples. We acknowledge their ancestors who lived in the Hugo area and were forcibly removed from here. Hugo was the summer land of the Dakota people who harvested wild rice from the lakes in this area. Honoring the past, present, and future Indigenous stewards of this land is one small way that we are working to decolonize and spread awareness of historical truths.
