Equine therapy is a unique and effective therapy that involves interacting with horses to promote emotional, behavioral, and cognitive growth. This makes therapy a fun and engaging way to work through personal challenges, build self-confidence, and develop important life skills. Our equine therapy group for children and adolescents is designed to be both therapeutic and enjoyable. Led by experienced certified equine therapists, each session is tailored to meet the specific needs of our participants. Through a variety of activities, participants will learn to communicate with horses, build trust and respect, and develop important problem-solving and decision-making skills.
