Equine Therapy

Need To Build Confidence?

Do you want to work on leadership and life skills? Are you looking to create more self awareness and learn how to connect more deeply with others? Do you want to find you own inner strength and courage? Our horses and donkeys can help you!

Equine therapy allows us to practice confidence and leadership skills. Through a specific Gentle Barn technique of grooming horses, you will become aware of your own body language and that of the horse and connect deeply. Afterward, you will take your horse on a walk and immediately get feedback from the horse as she or he trusts and follows you. In the horse world, no two horses are the same; one is the leader, and one is the follower. The same is true when we are in the company of a horse. In this program, you will learn how to hold your body, transmit your intention, and convey your energy to become a gentle leader. Each equine therapy session is an hour long, is perfect for anyone looking to expand their inner strength, courage, leadership, and voice, and can be used either in tandem with or outside of traditional talk therapy.

Session Description

Each equine therapy session is for one hour and work best for one individual at a time, although we do allow guests to bring a spouse or older child when requested. It is for people ages fourteen and older. Equine Therapy is not just for fun; we have private tours and are open to the public on Sundays for animal lovers who want to meet our animals. Equine Therapy is intended for those who are looking for confidence, inner strength, and healing from whatever you are going through.
