Vikki J. Paese, Director & Facilitator

Vikki has always believed in the powerful connection between horses and humans. The need for a unique and special intervention became more and more obvious to her during the seven years she spent working in various corporate, educational, and training positions.  At the same time, she became involved with youth outreach programs. Realizing that people need more than mere words and policies to help them understand how their behavior affects others, she started down a new trail.  She then earned a Master’s degree in Counseling from Philadelphia Biblical University.  To compliment this education and develop the unique touch she was looking for, she spent the last few years researching, educating herself, and working in the field of Equine Assisted Growth and Learning.  She has been certified through EAGALA, the original Equine Assisted Growth and Learning Association, founded by Greg Kersten, and also by Greg’s most recent training seminars called The O.K. Corral Series.  She has a natural God-given passion for helping people and a love for horses that together have helped her develop and facilitate workshops and establish Horses Helping Humans, LLC.

Triple H also has a wonderful group of horses and humans that partner in our work.
