“Horses are intuitive animals, and if you learn to listen to them, they’ll teach you more than you will ever teach them.”

– Rachel Wolf 1

Our Approach

Wild Equine Therapy aims to create a nurturing environment for clients with the help of our equine partners in the outdoors. We recognize that healing can take many forms, and Equine Assisted Therapy is one of those avenues. Our method merges the instinctive qualities of horses with traditional therapy models.

How Equine Assisted Therapy Can Help:

  • Offers supportive co-regulation with another living being

  • Provides space to reflect while engaging with animals

  • Provides a setting outside of the typical therapy room

  • Horses are intuitive beings and can connect with us in profound ways

  • Horses are often very in tune with the emotions and nervous systems of others around them

Treatment For Mental Health:

At Wild Equine Therapy, we know that life isn’t always easy, and healing often cannot happen in isolation. That’s why, with the help of equine partners, we provide a safe space for anyone in need of support seeking continued growth.

We combine different mental health models and Equine Assisted Therapy including:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

  • Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT)

  • Trauma Informed Practice

  • Mindfulness Practices

  • Nervous System Regulation

  • Client Centered Counselling

All Equine Assisted Therapy is provided in person at the Peaceful Pastures Equine Facilitated Learning Facility near Strathmore, Alberta.

We support all areas of mental health and healing. Book a free 20-minute virtual consultation:
