Equine Assisted Mental Health Therapy Program

Experience the healing power of nature and animals through our Equine and Animal Assisted Therapy (EAAT) program. In partnership with a Licensed Mental Health Therapist, we combine the tranquil ranch environment and the therapeutic benefits of animal interaction to help individuals overcome challenges such as stress, anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, addiction, emotional trauma, and more.

Our EAAT program offers a unique approach to therapy, allowing individuals of all ages and abilities to engage in activities like grooming, feeding, and interacting with farm animals, as well as gardening and other farming experiences. Through these activities, participants can develop skills in emotional regulation, self and social awareness, and confidence.

Each individual works closely with a licensed mental health therapist to create a personalized treatment plan that incorporates the most suitable animals and ranch activities to meet their specific needs and goals. We prioritize the comfort, health, and safety of both our participants and our animals throughout the program.
