Horse Show Kids: Meeting the Challenges A Weekly Support Group
At Carolyn’s Tutoring Trailer on the WEF Show Grounds $25/Person Includes Pizza and Soda Call 561-791-8939 for dates and times
Facilitated by a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and life-long “horse person,” this group meets weekly to offer a secure and confidential place for young riders to share the trials and tribulations of juggling top level competition with academics, family, and social life. The group will act as a safe clearing house for shared experiences, information, and support. If the group chooses, guest speakers such as sports psychologists, Olympic riders, and top trainers, may be called in. The main focus, however, will be on listening and offering support for each member’s personal experiences while establishing a supportive social network. The group will be facilitated, but not directed and will ensure the emotional safety of everyone. The group is open to young equestrians showing at WEF or in their local home communities. Topics discussed may include: |
