About The Owner ~ My Vision

"Ancora Imparo" is Latin for "I Am Still Learning"

Ancora Imparo Equine Center is the embodiment of my vision of what a boarding facility should be. It is a positive, progressive, always-improving work in progress.

I am a firm believer in KNOW BETTER ~ DO BETTER. As knowledge grows, how we do things may change. A never-ending commitment to learning, implementing improvements, and helping others do the same. Both humans and horses do better, when their needs are met!

About Stacia Langille:

My life has led me through many paths, with professional experience as an instructor, trainer, and for over the past decade; a farrier. I have spent time in many different equestrian settings in a variety of roles, and the insight I have gained during this time is reflected in the spirit of excellence and kindness that I pride myself on at AIEC.

My current work is multi-faceted. I am available for all questions pertaining to the management of Ancora Imparo Equine Center, as well as any questions related to horsemanship or farriery. I continue to maintain a referral-based practice focused on premier farrier care.

As AIEC grew into a facility hosting therapeutic programming, I embarked on a journey to complete a master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Antioch University, which I successfully completed in April of 2024. It is vitally important to me that I grow AIEC from a position of knowledge.

My approach to mental health reflects my personal values. I am social justice oriented. I strive to practice informed and conscious allyship through a transfeminist framework. I am an outspoken advocate of the neurodiversity movement and social models of disability. My area of specialty is working with queer and neurodivergent clients experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, complex trauma, and acute trauma. My clinical work integrates these personal interests into client-centered affirming care modalities. My approach centers on discovering regulation in your body, understanding your emotional experience in relationship to yourself and others, and empowering you with discovering your personal tools for wellness. I look forward to returning to part-time telehealth clinical work in the fall of 2024.

Plans for summer 2024 including visioning and mentoring the future of programming at Ancora Imparo Equine Center, specifically pertaining to expanding therapy programming… and spending time with my family and personal horses!
