Horses possess unique characteristics that make them ideal partners in healing and personal growth. As prey animals, they are naturally attuned to their environment and highly sensitive to both verbal and nonverbal communication—providing immediate, honest feedback during therapeutic interactions.

Perhaps most importantly, horses are inherently forgiving, patient, and nonjudgemental. They don't carry preconceptions about your past or current struggles, creating a safe space where you can practice new ways of being, build confidence, and experience genuine connection.

Working with horses in our farm setting offers something you can't get in a traditional office: the opportunity to engage your whole self—mind, body, and spirit—in the healing process.

Our treatment team consists of a Mental Health Professional, Equine Specialist, Horse Wrangler, and Horses. Together, the treatment team works with each group to guide participants through a series of ground-based exercises with the horses in a round pen. The exercises become increasingly complex over time.

Opening and closing circles, led by the treatment team, are designed to orient participants to each session and process experiences and/or lessons learned during the intervention.

This is not a riding program. All of our EAT sessions are ground-based.

No horse experience required.

Individuals with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), PTSD symptoms, depression, anxiety, and other mood related disorders.

Additionally, EAT can be great for teams as it fosters teamwork and camaraderie among participants.
