Individual Sessions
Our eight-week program is specifically designed for military and first responders. During these sessions our clients work through challenges related to PTSD, relationships, personal growth, and addiction recovery. Each session is guided by a skilled mental health professional and an experienced equine specialist, ensuring a comprehensive and supportive therapeutic experience.
Workshops
Our group sessions blend educational content with hands-on experiences, guided by skilled mental health professionals and equine specialists. Each session begins with an exploration of horse psychology and human psychology, highlighting the parallels between horses' responses to danger and human trauma responses. Participants then engage in interactive activities with the horses, observing and reflecting on behaviors that mirror their own struggles. This combination of learning and practical interaction provides powerful insights into PTSD and trauma, fostering resilience, self-awareness, and a sense of camaraderie among peers.
