Counseling with Horses is an experiential therapy. Sessions are tailored to your unique needs and may include: creation of self-regulation skills;  constructing solutions to problems; learning how to create and maintain healthy relationships; practicing new behavior patterns; and more!

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a modality used to treat troubling symptoms of trauma. It was developed by Dr. Francine Shapiro and has been extensively researched and proven effective for treatment of a variety of issues. EMDR helps us process memories which contributed to negative beliefs about ourselves. 

EquiLateral®: Equine-Assisted EMDR is an animal-assisted approach to EMDR Therapy. It was created by Sarah Jenkins, MC, LPC and is an EMDRIA approved EMDR protocol. 

These sessions offer a way to receive rest and relief. Respite sessions can include time with the horses, or simply outdoors. Respite sessions are not mental health therapy. 

No. All interactions with the horses are on the ground.
