Equine Workshops
Our Equine Workshops provide a distinctive and impactful experience, harnessing the unique benefits of connecting with horses. These Workshops, led by an Equine Specialist and supported by a Youth Counselor, are designed to foster emotional and social growth. This collaborative effort between our Youth Development and Equine Services allows participants to progress toward their goals through a combination of groundwork and riding. The Youth Counselor offers personalized, one-on-one support, while the Equine Specialist guides the group as the leader.
​
Our Equine Workshops offer significant benefits to all participants, especially those who may find it challenging to connect with their peers, as they can naturally form meaningful bonds with the horses at their own comfort level, fostering personal growth and confidence. The distinctive dynamic of working with horses in these workshops can help them build trust and confidence, develop social skills, have positive peer interactions and friendship building, and improve emotional regulation in a way that feels more natural and comfortable to them.
Equine Assisted Psychotherapy
Discover the power of Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP)! This unique program leverages the special bond between humans and horses to provide a therapeutic approach that goes beyond traditional methods.
​
EAP is particularly effective for individuals battling PTSD, anxiety, and depression, offering a direct and immersive experience that facilitates healing. Horses, as prey animals, are naturally alert and seek leadership, which makes them highly responsive to the emotions of those around them. They mirror the emotions of clients, seek connection, and provide a non-judgmental presence, creating a safe and supportive environment for personal growth.
​
With the guidance of a licensed therapist and the unique qualities of these remarkable animals, EAP helps clients discover new strengths and pathways to healing. Transform lives with the magic of EAP!
Adaptive Riding
Adaptive Riding—where transformation begins! Participants of all abilities and ages join forces with our expert Equine Specialists and horses to create personalized goal plans tailored to their unique needs.
Our Equine Specialists design innovative skill-building activities, from groundwork to riding, to help each participant achieve their goals. Whether in individual or group settings, these sessions are crafted to support and enhance each client's progress and development.
Experience the magic of Adaptive Riding and see your clients thrive like never before!
Psychotherapy
Our Psychotherapy program offers individualized therapeutic experiences facilitated by a Licensed Professional Counselor, without the use of horses. This service provides an experiential, non-traditional approach to therapy within the serene ranch setting, focused on promoting healing and achieving mental health goals.

Veteran Wellness
