BodyWork Reference From DVM Patrick Young

“As an equine sports medicine veterinarian, I highly recommend Josh as a massage therapist. We have teamed up on multiple occasions and our work is symbiotic and compliments each other.

He is extremely knowledgeable, does great body work and knows when to refer to a veterinarian.

The horses love what he does for them and subsequently so do their owners. His diagnostic findings have been very accurate and his medical intuition is dialed in.  

He and Victoria are an excellent team. They are both great students of the horse which leads to their high level of horsemanship. I look forward to continuing to work and learn with Josh in the future.” 

Patrick H. Young, DVM, Founder-The Athletic Horse, AVCA certified in animal chiropractic

Retreat Testimonial

“I had one of the best weekends of my life here. I definitely was not prepared for what I experienced, kinda mind blown actually, still basking in all the joy, laughter, tears, vulnerability, the whole enchilada shared over the weekend. Big love to all who shared this weekend with us!”

Inspiring Stories of Transformation:

Hear From Our Clients 

 
 

Navigate Your Horsemanship Journey with Confidence


Receive trauma-informed guidance and expert support to deepen your equine connection with understanding, compassion, and proven techniques.

Merging Heart-Centered Care with Trauma-Informed Horsemanship

Traditional methods often focus on dominance, sidelining curiosity, empathy, and the horse’s unique voice. Meanwhile, some heart-centered approaches can overlook the critical nuances of equine culture and communication.

My Horse Journey bridges this divide, offering a trauma-informed, compassionate approach that honors both the horse and human.

Simplifying Equine Care and Connection

With countless horsemanship theories out there, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. From understanding equine communication to mastering handling and care, the path can feel complex.

Our trauma-informed program simplifies the journey, providing clear, compassionate guidance that empowers you to connect with confidence.

Discover Your Herd: A Compassionate and Supportive Community

The equestrian world can often feel exclusive and intimidating. My Horse Journey offers a refreshing alternative—a welcoming, trauma-informed community where curiosity is celebrated, and our shared passion for horses brings us together.

Here, you'll find authentic connections, free from drama, judgment, and hierarchy, fostering a safe space for growth and learning.

Overcoming Fear and Past Negative Experiences

Recovering from a negative experience with horses can be challenging.

Our trauma-informed, empathetic approach focuses on safety and emotional healing, guiding you to rebuild trust and reconnect with the joy and peace that horses can bring.

We’re here to support your journey back to confidence, one compassionate step at a time.

Breaking Through Plateaus: Elevate Your Horsemanship

Every horse enthusiast encounters roadblocks, whether it's trailer loading issues or a sudden change in your horse's behavior.

Our trauma informed program equips you with the insights and strategies to overcome these hurdles, so that you and the horse are safer and have more fun!

"I highly recommend it! It was a very rich learning experience and the cohort offered a great environment with other eager learning, horse loving riders.

Learning groundwork really built trust in my horse towards me and bettered our relationship! It's amazing how even a small amount of intentional ground work make a big impact on my relationship"

Mya Falk, Ranch Manager Bend Barley Beef


What excites me so much about this program is that it includes all of the elements that are most important to me. There's relational awareness and exploration of the self, the horse, the environment, and the cohort.

There's mindfulness and psychological awareness and exploration. There's biomechanics and equine science and psychology, and there's the most progressive horse training conversations that I've personally encountered.

Cara Gerau, LMFT, Equine Psychotherapist, Founder: Somatic Therapy of Marin

About Us

Hi there, Victoria & Josh Here!

"The art of teaching is the art of assisting discovery." - Mark Van Doren

At My Horse Journey, we believe that horses open doors to greater joy, deeper connections, and transformative healing. Blending the art & science of therapeutic methods with true horsemanship, our mission is to guide you toward profound realizations and meaningful relationships with horses.

Our Journey Together:
  • A Lifetime of Learning: Together, we bring over 50 years of experience in horsemanship, bodywork, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care. We are committed to continuous learning, refining our approach, and sharing our discoveries with you.
Our Story

My Horse Journey emerged from our own transformative life experiences, including overcoming enormous challenges and living off grid with our free-ranging herd. These experiences brought us to a pivotal realization: attunement with horses is intertwined with personal growth and self discovery - where real healing is relational and felt. 

Your Guides on This Journey:
  • Victoria: Bringing 25 years of professional experience, including an apprenticeship in a world champion reined/cow horse program, Victoria has not only trained and ridden national and world champions but also has a wealth of experience in horsemanship instruction, and equine therapy co-facilitation. Victoria is now advancing her expertise as a Master’s of Social Work candidate at Portland State University. She blends her deep equine knowledge with a trauma-informed counseling perspective, offering a compassionate approach to horsemanship and healing.

  • Josh: Drawing from 25 years in mindfulness teaching, professional bodywork, and expertise in Biomechanics and Exercise Science, Josh has developed a unique relational approach to Equine BodyWork and integrates mindfulness training with equine assisted interventions. As a doctoral candidate in Occupational Therapy, he strives to apply evidence-based practices with relational attunement, helping others connect deeply with horses and themselves. When not working in My Horse Journey, you can find Josh pursuing his passion of Indian Classical Music. 

We're huge fans of epic tales and adventures – think Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and Spiderman. These stories, where heroes 'Answer the Calling' to embark on journeys of self-discovery and unearth deep truths from within, resonate, and mirror the transformative journeys we facilitate in our programs. 

We believe every student is the hero of their own story, uncovering truths and growing along the way!
