Hi! I’m Liza Auciello, a licensed psychologist and certified mindfulness instructor. I specialize in three areas:
Elevate Through Freedom
Personal Growth Experiences Integrating the Spirit of Horses
Life always seems better when we feel free, right?
- Improving heart-centered skills that lead to greater confidence, self-love and healing through individual therapy.
- Deepening the horse-human bond using mindfulness and other powerful strategies.
- Increasing leadership effectiveness through individual coaching.
Whether we connect virtually or in-person, the goal is to assist you in your growth and to create the change you want to see in your life.
My approach to human development is holistic. Together, we explore the patterns you have in your body, mind, spirit, energy, emotions and relationships. We emphasize what is actually true about you instead of the negative beliefs you may have about yourself, and we develop your patterns so that you can experience life as your authentic self. To accelerate your growth and healing, I combine my understanding of human behavior and the mind-body connection with mindfulness, movement, energy, and reflective methods, along with the wisdom I’ve gained from my collaboration with horses.
Why Horses?
Horses are the best teachers. They are straightforward and fair. Their communication is clear. They don’t judge, blame or hold grudges. Their boundaries are well-defined and respectful.
A Holistic Approach

Understand and connect with your body. Learn to move through life with grace and confidence.

"I believe that when people are living the life they want, a free life, their capacity to spread love and joy increases; their ability to positively influence their horses, families, communities and work culture grows."
