Take the Next Step

Individuals & Groups

Step into the healing presence of horses and discover a new path to emotional well-being. Our equine-integrated wellness services move beyond traditional talk therapy, offering an experiential and deeply personal approach to healing, growth, and self-discovery.

Horses, with their natural sensitivity and intuition, reflect our inner experiences, providing a safe and supportive environment to explore emotions and patterns. We offer Individual Sessions where you work on-on-one with our therapists as well as Group Sessions which foster a shared experience.

Benefits of Equine-Assisted Wellness:

  • Greater self-awareness and confidence

  • Reduced stress, anxiety, and overwhelm

  • A safe space to process challenges experientially

  • Improved communication and relationship skills

  • Stronger trust and authentic connection with others

Corporate Team Building

Unlock your team’s full potential with equine-assisted team building—a dynamic, hands-on approach that fosters stronger communication, leadership, and collaboration. Unlike classroom trainings, horses provide real-time feedback, challenging teams to adapt, problem-solve, and work together more effectively.

Teams walk away with:

  • Sharper communication and active listening skills

  • Stronger leadership and adaptability

  • Creative problem-solving strategies under pressure

  • Greater trust, cooperation, and resilience

  • A renewed sense of connection and shared purpose

Ideal for corporate groups, nonprofits, and leadership teams, these immersive sessions are guided by licensed therapists and certified equine facilitators. The result is a professional development experience that is engaging, impactful, and unforgettable.
