Chloe's Place
You are welcome here
This is not a therapy office.
Chloe's Place is a working sanctuary in Bethel, Connecticut. Sessions happen outdoors. The pace is set by you and by what your nervous system can hold, not by a fifty-minute clock and a checklist.
"The horses respond to who you actually are, not who you're trying to be. For many adults, that is the first genuinely honest relationship they've had in a long time."
WHAT BRINGS PEOPLE HERE
Complex Trauma & C-PTSD
Childhood and developmental trauma patterns and beliefs that show up in relationships
Anxiety
Persistent worry and nervous system activation that interferes with daily living
.
Depression
Particularly where it is rooted in relational loss, disconnection, or a long history of not being met
Autism Spectrum or HSP
Whether newly diagnosed or long-known. The exhaustion of masking. A therapeutic environment that makes no social demands.
Relational & Attachment Wounds
The patterns that repeat across relationships. The difficulty trusting.
The Therapy Ceiling
Understanding your patterns with real clarity and still living them anyway.
OUR APPROACH
Hakomi : A mindful, body-centred somatic form of psychotherapy that works with the implicit beliefs and automatic patterns stored in the nervous system. It is slow, curious work — and it goes deeper than most talk-based approaches because it doesn't require you to narrate your way to change.
Equine & Animal-Assisted Psychotherapy : Uses the relationship between you and the horses as a vehicle for insight and nervous system regulation. Horses read your actual state, not your performed one. What arises in that relationship is genuine — and genuinely useful.
Nature-Based Therapy : Works with the restorative and regulating effects of natural environments. Being outside and n contact with living beings activates the parasympathetic nervous system in ways an indoor room cannot.
Attachment-Based Work : Places the therapeutic relationship at the centre. The experience of being consistently met, seen, and held through difficulty — repeated over time — is itself the intervention.

Reaching out is the hardest part for most people. If something in this page has landed — that's enough. You don't need more certainty than that.
