Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy
A powerful, evidence-informed mental health approach that uses interaction with horses to help individuals explore emotional challenges, develop coping skills, and build healthier relationships.
At Stepping Stones, we provide a safe, grounded space where licensed mental health professionals work alongside equine specialists to guide clients through experiential sessions that support emotional healing, self-awareness, and personal growth—all without the need to ride.
Rather than traditional talk therapy in an office, clients engage in ground-based activities with horses—such as leading, grooming, or observing. These experiences often mirror real-life patterns, allowing clients to gain insights into behavior, relationships, and emotional responses.
