Hello, my name is Annette Pelletier, clinical therapist and founder of Mustang Magic Equine Therapy Services. I have learned this life we live is often littered with hardships and challenges which can negatively impact how we navigate the world in which we live and the relationships we have developed along the way. We all require connection and a sense of love and belonging with others, which can sometimes feel so far away when we are lost in feelings of guilt and shame. Traumatic events in our lives often interfere with our ability to feel connected and safe with others, and even with ourselves.

Struggling with anxiety, PTSD or other issues related to trauma or challenging past experiences? I specialize in therapies, including EMDR, that can provide effective relief from the struggle. I am also skilled and experienced in supporting adults and their family members struggling with ADHD. If your challenges feel more intense or harder to ignore these days, you are not alone. Fortunately therapy is just as available to you now- I am experienced with remote, video-based counseling, and even hesitant clients have found these sessions just as effective as in-person therapy.

I’ve been in the therapeutic healing world for over 40 years, and I understand a few things: Everyone has the power to heal themselves. Most of our mental/physical/emotional/spiritual disturbances are a result of unresolved grief/trauma. 3. Embracing both Light and Shadow within and without creates a full spectrum for life. 4. A creative process in therapy works for me and my clients. 5. Tears and laughter are both necessary to heal. I have the appropriate credentials for holding space. I am, first and foremost, an artist which provides a different portal for entering the therapeutic alliance. Therapy is a journey.

Sex. Intimacy. Pleasure. These topics can feel overwhelming and vulnerable to discuss. Maybe you’ve turned to Google for answers on how to improve your sex life, but still feel discouraged or unsure if there’s more to explore. Perhaps the very thought of sex makes you uncomfortable, let alone talking about it. You’re looking to reconnect with yourself, heal from the past, and build confidence in your relationships. If you’re ready to open up, get curious about your experiences, and share your story, let’s see if we’re a good fit.

You are bright, sensitive, and insightful but either feel like you’re stuck on ON (easily startled, racing thoughts that are difficult to control or turn off, struggling to relax and feeling flooded emotionally), or stuck on OFF (flat, lethargic, exhausted, foggy, unmotivated and disconnected from your vitality and energy). You may have even spent years in talk therapy, gained a lot of insight but have hit a plateau and may be wondering if you’re not meant to fully heal or if therapy actually works. It is possible to deeply heal - you just need an approach that supports your life's history and how it's stored in your body.

I am HOSTING a Small Therapy GROUP - "Coming HOME to the BODY After TRAUMA" - in SUMMER/FALL. Reach out with interest or questions! Welcome. I believe we are innately healing beings and internally have what we need to heal. Within each of us is a deep knowing of who we truly are, what really matters to us, and our life’s purpose. Yet, in this human life, we inevitably encounter traumas, and it's easy to lose our connection to the inner knowing of our hearts. We may feel lost, disconnected, unlovable, or angry. As a therapist, my intention is to join alongside you on your healing journey and help you reconnect to you.

I am currently only accepting certain clients for my waitlist. I do have spots available for my Parenting Classes. I specialize in helping children, teens, and adults manage and decrease their anxiety. While anxiety can be a part of daily life, at times it becomes debilitating or distressing. I work with my clients to find a way to balance daily stress while still finding enjoyment in life. I utilize evidence-based practices that are based on science and measurable goals. I like my clients to feel involved in the process of choosing goals and measuring their own progress and successes.
