Ute Wilhelms is a pioneer in therapeutic work with horses and humans. She has been working for many years in equine-assisted outpatient psychiatric care with horses that she has trained herself. In her book, she describes the subtle yet powerful processes that occur in the interaction between human and horse, using precise, empathetic language and extensive knowledge. She invites the reader to emotionally experience and understand these encounters. The words Ute finds to express the experiences of individuals who are often severely traumatized are personal and touching, just as are the words she uses to describe her own challenges. Ute's book, her work, and her life journey serve as an inspiration and an invitation for many to bravely follow the path of healing, wherever it may lead us.
