Equine Therapy

Developing Confidence and Identity

Equine therapy is an evidence-based therapeutic intervention which improves confidence in children with various presentations of anxiety and depressive disorders. We utilize equine therapy to help children improve in understanding their potential and develop personal values and self-worth.

Trauma & PTSD

Animals can be incredible emotional supports and offer healing to children with histories of trauma or abuse. We offer guided interactions to help children learn safety and develop internal peace though their connection with the animal.

Communication and Behavior Management

Equine therapy offers children opportunity to learn to speak calmly, assertively, clearly, and consistently. The animals naturally reinforce self-control and positive behaviors in the child as they learn to work together.
