Equine Therapy group focused on building self-confidence, connection, body image resilience, emotional regulation skills, and eating disorder healing — all through the healing partnership of horses. This group offers a supportive, nonjudgmental space where participants learn to build trust within themselves and others, strengthen self-esteem, and develop a kinder, more compassionate relationship with their bodies. No prior horse experience is needed — just curiosity and a willingness to grow. If you know a young person who could benefit from experiential, relational, somatic-informed growth through horses, I’d love to connect.
