If you’re feeling the pull to deepen your practice, this is the workshop where that work actually happens.

Join Kylie Peters (Psychologist, Family Therapist) and her four-legged team for a two-day immersive workshop exploring how safety is consciously co-created within therapeutic and learning spaces - not assumed, but actively scaffolded.

Grounded in the Co-Creating Safety Practice Framework and brought to life through experiential learning with horses, this workshop invites you to look at your work differently. Not just what you do, but how you think, respond, and show up within it.

Across the two days, you’ll explore:
• Consent, boundaries, and dignity of risk in practice
• Relational process, what’s happening in the space, and why
• Your own responses, patterns, and blind spots
• How to build and refine a personal practice framework
• Ways to support safe, sustainable, ethically informed work
• Strengthening your reflective and reflexive capacity

This is a weight-neutral, HAES-aligned space that centres the practitioner as part of the work, with a strong focus on ethics, awareness, and clarity of practice.

You’ll also walk away with practical tools to support ongoing reflection, including the Groundwork Practitioner Concept Map booklet and Reflective Practice Questions.

This workshop aligns with Psychology Board of Australia competencies 2, 3 and 7.

This is for therapists, counsellors, psychologists, social workers, educators, allied health professionals, and anyone looking to expand their awareness, refine their approach, and lead with integrity in equine and outdoor practice.

If you’re ready to examine how who you are shapes how you practice, join us. For tickets click the link in our bio. Coming with a friend? Use the code: WORKSHOPFRIEND1 to both receive $65 off.

Trust the process, because you have built a process you can trust.

The Groundwork Therapy workshops are designed to help you develop clarity of practice, reflexive thinking, and ethical foundations.

You learn how to understand what is unfolding in front of you and why you think it is unfolding that way.

From there, you build your own personal practice framework.

Thank you for your continued support of Groundwork Therapy.

While we’ve been a little quieter on socials, there’s been a great deal happening behind the scenes - reviewing and refining our programs, restructuring elements of the business, building new online booking and communication systems, updating resources, and thoughtfully evolving our Practitioner Training and Professional Development workshop offerings,

All of this has been done with you in mind.

We’re nearly ready, and so excited to share what 2026 holds.

The calendar of events will be released in the coming days, so stay tuned…

Pheobe 🖤 11 February 2026

The most extraordinary pony, beyond grateful for you, your heart and wise soul and all our adventures together. you absolute legend. What an honour and a privilege to have you in my herd for the past 18 years.

You taught me. You taught alongside me, and would have worked with thousand humans all over Australia in your time, changing lives one hearty at a time in ways only you could. You left a legacy with everyone who knew you.
You were the most special; workshops, life and the paddock will never be the same without you. You made everything and all of us better just because you were there. Our very own superhero.

Fiercely loved and missed by us;
Woody, Teddy, doc, monk, joker, Jasper and me carry your heart, in our hearts, always.

Rest in Peace My little hearty 🤍

Fonzis been waiting for you.

Thankyou for your ongoing support of Groundwork Therapy this year, it has been a privilege to work together 🥕

➡️ Are we ‘building safety’ or ‘building unsafety’ in our workshops…?

This idea that safety is not one big thing but a culmination of so many little things
And safety is not a ‘set and forget’ but a value and a process we want to build through the whole workshop.

Making the invisible visible 💫

💫2 Day Professional Development- Chidlow WA 💫

What an incredible few days we had learning about horses to learn about ourselves and a deep dive into understanding our practices and ourselves.

➡️Slowing down, thinking about what we are actually doing, what is actually happening in front of us,
➡️What is my why?
➡️Ethical safe enough practices
➡️Stepping in - stepping out process
Pre pre - pre - in - post - post post for ourselves as practitioners, our horses and our participants.
➡️How we understand what is happening impacts how we scaffold in safety.
➡️Where building safety is the work

Massive Thankyou and appreciation to Jacqui for having and hosting Groundwork.
And these absolute legends Raine, Al (aka Alvin) and Mick 🥕
