Jaime Dawn Topham

Jaime Dawn Topham grew up on the back of a horse, training and showing horses all over the United States. She began teaching riding lessons to others when she was 16 years old. Through training horses and teaching people, Jaime learned the importance of patience, communication, empathy, and determination to achieve a desired outcome. That experience gave her the skills she now uses to help clients get through the most difficult experiences of their life.
