Wild Hearts offers limited individual Trauma Focused Equine Assisted Psychotheray (TF-EAP) sessions for adults on Wednesdays in the Spring and Fall. Sessions are entirely unmounted and require no prior horse experience. Each session is facilitated by an Equine Professional and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor.

 

We follow the principles of Natural Lifemanship®, a trauma informed approach to Equine Assisted Services based on the science of relationships. We believe that healthy, connected relationships are the key to healing from trauma.

 

Why TF-EAP?

 

• Much of the exchange that takes place between horses and humans is non-verbal, which is particularly powerful for those who have experienced trauma that is difficult to express in words.
   

• Horses are non-judgemental and provide instant feedback. We have the opportunity to identify and examine patterns of behavior and experiment with new behaviors in a safe environment.
   

• Developing a healthy, connected relationship with a horse is often the first step in helping us find safety in connecting with ourselves and other people.
