Hello and welcome to Coventry Psychology at Epona Brae!

When I established Epona Brae almost a decade ago, it was the first Equine Therapy and Clinical Psychology centre in Australia, My goal was to establish a centre of excellence in the field. Today the practice has grown to incorporate Equine, Animal assisted and room based Clinical Psychology and therapies, and I have an amazing team of psychologists, horses, ponies, chickens, ducks, cats, and Maremma dogs.

Epona Brae is a 18 acre property in Upper Beaconsfield, Victoria. Our facility is set up with a floodlit arena, paddock and walk out areas, offices, barn, and play therapy areas including a sensory garden. Therapy at Epona Brae is only conducted by qualified psychologists and provisional psychologists, so we can provide clients with the best empirically supported psychological therapy, combined with the innovative approaches of Equine Assisted Psychotherapy and Animal Assisted Therapy.

Our team of therapy horses, ponies and other animals are not just therapy supports, they are our co-therapists and friends, and each one has a unique and special way of working and contributing to client’s therapy and wellness.
