Winston Churchill said “There’s something about the outside of a horse that’s good for the inside of a man.”
We couldn’t agree more! Why equine therapy?
Research has shown equine assisted psychotherapy, or EAP, significantly reduces symptoms of distress, as well as increases self-awareness, ability to engage in 
healthy communication & trust. These are important factors in any relationship but especially marriage.
Imagine stepping out of your therapist’s office and stepping onto a ranch where you and your spouse can investigate what may be the hidden source of conflict in your marriage. Slowly but surely, as you gain your horse’s trust, you may see for yourself what is keeping yourself from trusting your spouse — or your spouse trusting you.
Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) is an experiential process in which the participant works on therapeutic goals by interacting with horses. EAP is conducted on the ground and requires no riding or previous horse experience to participate. 
Groups throughout the day also utilize the empirically proven, Emotionally Focused Therapy’s Hold Me Tight group curriculum, created by best-selling author and therapist Sue Johnson. This curriculum is designed to help each couple engage in positive relational interactions that can have a lasting impact on the marriage.
This unique combination of experiential therapies can provide an opportunity for every participant to walk away with increased awareness about themselves and their marriage.
