I was somewhat skeptical at first but EFL has been amazing for my son that has ADHD. He loves every session and is making very apparent progress in learning techniques to control and reflect on his behaviour. Truely Amazing!
Mario J.
Parent, ADHD ChildThe meaningful outcomes that I see from participants undergoing EFL is often remarkable. The reporting after each session helps me to work with the client during my sessions. The feedback has been outstanding!
Susan Webb
CounsellorI have always loved being around horses, when I found Natalie I knew it would be great for me. After my first session I left knowing I had made the right choice. She is so kind and accommodating and I felt so comfortable. Highly recommend!
Elyse S.
ParticipantMy 11 yo ASD Daughter absolutely loves her sessions with Natalie and looks forward to them every week! Her ability to self regulate and manager her emotions and anxiety has improved so much since working with Natalie & Banjo.
