Ali was tired of hearing stories from people seeking help for their mental health and failing. She saw an alternative that shifted away from a clinical setting as the key. Sitting in an office, talking about your worries and insecurities is intimidating and very difficult to do. While it takes a different kind of bravery to do this with an equine partner, the benefits are insurmountable. Heartline provides a unique opportunity for clients to connect with horses in a safe and supportive environment. Our program allows individuals to engage in experiential learning, fostering personal growth and self-discovery in real time.
