What is Equine Therapy?


Equine therapy is the perfect way to bring horses, humans, and nature together in a therapeutic supportive relationship that supports the client with everyday life experiences. Horses are intelligent beautiful and sensitive animals. They are the perfect representation of beauty, strength, and freedom. Horses offer a non-judgmental responses to people and enables the person to express and be their full authentic self without judgement. Better Life Ranch offers a safe and supportive environment for clients to be able to explore their deepest emotional and painful experiences.


Equine therapy includes a range of different programs, ranging from one-on-one sessions involving activities and bonding with the horses to group sessions with up to 10 people or kids that takes place in an outdoor Equine related environment. Not only does Equine therapy benefit Mental Health, but it also promotes physical and emotional growth.

The responsiveness from horses, along with the size of these beautiful animals, encourages a trusting and collaborative relationship between horse and client. Horses can mirror human behaviors and emotions and in response can encourage the client to be calm, aware, and fully present in the here and now moment.
