Marie MasonLPC Counselor Marie Mason was born in Toronto, Canada after her parents immigrated from Holland. Her dad became a farmer and she started riding when she was nine. She spent years doing 4-H and showing on the Arabian circuit. She moved to Texas in 1993 to teach horseback riding at Camp Stewart in Hunt, Texas and never left. Marie has now been working in education for twenty-eight years but her passion is equine therapy, which she hopes to do full time after retirement. Marie has been certified with EAGALA since 2010 and firmly believes in the power of the horses. She will be doing EMDR training in the fall and is hoping to also use horses as a tool in the regulation of trauma. Oasis Acres has been a wonderful place to work and we hope that you will come out to see what we do!
