This is a place to reconnect with oneself & nature.
Our outdoor equine-assisted space is designed for children & adults who love horses & are seeking nervous-system regulation, grounded mindfulness & connected presence through chronic stress, grief & life transitions.
At Healing Hooves, all sessions are non-clinical, unhurried & consent-based. We move at your pace alongside our horses - sometimes together, sometimes with distance - while we notice breathing, posture & shifts in your body’s stress responses, as well as our horses’.
There is no pressure to “perform” or share. The focus is always on curiosity, self-reflection & building healthy bonds.
No prior horse experience necessary. Just come as you are, our horses will meet you there.
where horses & humans heal in harmony
Welcome

• You’re living with the impacts of trauma, grief, chronic stress
• You’re a caregiver or support person needing to rediscover/reconnect with oneself
• You’re drawn to horses, and wish to build a personal bond beyond traditional riding lessons
• You’re considering purchasing or leasing a horse of your own & wish to gain insight into the realities of respectful, horse-led horsemanship, finances & care
This is not:
• Clinical Therapy
• Crisis Intervention
• Emergency Support
• Conventional Riding Lessons
