This program will guide you through the process of building a relationship with a horse by a specially trained team made up of a Mental Health Professional, an Equine Expert, and the horse itself. The relationship-building process will help you to understand how your life experiences have shaped the way that your brain functions. It then teaches you to build new pathways in your brain that can heal relationships with yourself, others, and the world around you.  

Our horses are vital partners on the therapy team. Horses react quickly and authentically to subtle shifts in human respiration, body language, voice tone, muscle tension, and posture. They are invaluable as relationship partners because they provide immediate and non-judgmental feedback about the impact of our interactions with them. The process of becoming familiar with a horse’s feedback form the foundation for change that promotes healing and the development of secure relationships with yourself and others in your life. The same skills and principles that you learn in your relationship with a horse apply to all human relationships.
