SIBYLLE VOGEL
Specialist in Equine Behavior & Certified Heilpraktiker Psychotherapist

Lead Facilitator / Innovator in Equine-Assisted Personal Development in Tuscany

Sibylle Vogel is an expert in equine behavior and psychotherapeutic coaching, with a unique international background. Raised in Munich and trained at the UK’s TOCES, she combines neuroscience and ancient wisdom to promote emotional well-being through horse-facilitated experiences. Certified as a Heilpraktiker Psychotherapist in Germany, Sibylle co-founded Horse Power Experience in Tuscany, where she integrates holistic healing practices with equine therapy to support personal growth. Her work is grounded in respect for the horse and a deep commitment to the transformative power of the horse-human relationship.

Sibylle Vogel grew up in Munich within an academically and scientifically enriched environment that nurtured her early interests in nature, animal behavior and diverse cultures. After a childhood close to horses, she spent seven years in California immersed in the culture of personal growth and development. Extended stays in Asia deepened her exploration of Eastern philosophy and meditation, integrating animal symbolism. In the early 1990s, she relocated to Tuscany with her family, focusing on studying various healing methods and reconnecting with her equestrian passions. She subsequently graduated in Equine Behavior at TOCES, a leading UK institution, coming full circle on her desire to combine a deep knowledge of human and equine beings’ psychology.

Sibylle’s professional qualifications include specialization in equine behavior and certification as a Heilpraktiker Psychotherapy (psychotherapist) recognized by the German Health Ministry. As co-founder and operator of Horse Power Experience, she employs a holistic approach that blends naturopathic counseling, equine-facilitated psychological coaching, and integration of Western and Eastern healing philosophies.

Her philosophy centers on merging neuroscience and ancient wisdom, emphasizing neuroplasticity and its role in personal development. Sibylle believes in the transformative power of horse-facilitated experiences, highlighting emotional processing and introspection as essential for growth. Her vision is to offer a unique, scientifically grounded, and deeply human approach to emotional well-being using the therapeutic potential of horses.

At Horse Power Experience in Tuscany, Sibylle creates a space where horses act as mediators and catalysts for change, integrating a broad spectrum of healing practices into personalized paths. With her international and multidisciplinary background, she brings an innovative and profound perspective aligned with the ethical and quality standards that define Alterreno.

THE PHILOSOPHY

Integration of Mind & Heart

True transformation with horses begins by understanding the human and equine mind, not by forcing external behaviours. Healing and growth happen through emotional connection and mutual respect.

Respect as Foundation

Horses are sentient beings with their own emotions, needs, and unique perceptions that deserve recognition.

Seeing through the Eyes of the Horse

Awareness of prey psychology and natural instincts is fundamental for building trust.

Emotional Insight before Technique

Personal clarity and emotional processing must precede any mechanical or behavioural intervention.

Healing through Relationship

True progress arises when connection replaces control and communication is heartfelt and reciprocal.
