About Us
Passionate to help
We share one mission:
Helping people heal through guided interactions and coaching with horses.
Respectful, compassionate, empowering.
Our Story
Heal with Horses, was founded by Maria Ollero and Monica Kubik.
​
The Middle East chapter started in January 2020, when Christina Marz, founder of the method Horse Guided Empowerment®, traveled to Dubai to teach other horse enthusiasts this unique way of coaching.
Since then, over 15 facilitators have been or are currently being trained in the United Arab Emirates alone, and the method is also present in Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Kenya, and more to come!
​
In addition to their regular sessions, Monica and Maria began leading FeelQuest Retreats in the UAE, Spain, Georgia, Kazakhstan and subsequently decided to create this platform.
Heal with Horses aims to raise awareness about a respectful and conscious way of working with horses, one that honors their nature while supporting deep, lasting healing in people. Through coaching and a range of equine-assisted healing modalities all has the same aim:
to help society find a way back to their roots.
​
We are also always open to collaborate with other facilitators, groups or social entities in order to reach a wider audience and help more people and horses - we might even be expanding to camels soon!
