Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy
Healing that does not start with words
Mental health treatment with horses, led by a licensed therapist, entirely on the ground.
What it is
What equine-assisted
psychotherapy is
A licensed therapist and a certified Equine Specialist work with you and a horse, entirely on the ground. The horse responds honestly to what you bring, in the moment, giving you and your therapist something real to work with. We are trained in the EAGALA and Natural Lifemanship models.
Who it is for
When talking alone has
only gone so far
For people carrying trauma, anxiety, grief, or a hard season of life. It often reaches those who have found that words alone were not enough. We work with adults, teens, and families.
Trauma | Anxiety | Grief and loss
Life transitions | Depression
What a session is like
Outdoors, on the ground, no experience needed
Every session is outside with the horses. There is no riding, and you will not be asked to perform. Some sessions are quiet time near the herd; others are a simple task with a horse that opens into something larger. Your therapist follows what shows up. Because it is all groundwork, age, injury, mobility, and disability are not barriers here.
