The Mongolian Horse, the Girl and the Therapist

The Mongolian Horse, the Girl and the Therapist is the debut of author and systemic equine-assisted therapist Hesther Selbeck (1982).
Hesther’s life takes a turn at the age of 28 when a vision of Mongolian horses floods her mind as she’s standing in her kitchen. This inspires her to embark on an unforgettable horseback journey through Mongolia, where she experiences the healing power of horses and overcomes her fears and insecurities.
 
With this renewed strength and confidence, she becomes an entrepreneur, a TEDx speaker, and develops the successful systemic equine-assisted therapy method, Contextual Horse Therapy, for young people and their parents, offering answers where psychiatric and mental health services fall short. Out of a desire to share her experiences with the world, she began writing books and articles and giving lectures.
This book about her inspired quest encourages readers to question their own authenticity and life choices.
Today, Hesther lives with her family and works alongside her herd of horses, including her remarkable wild Sorraia horse Mira, in the Serra da Estrela mountain range in Portugal.
