Our Mission

At Medicine Horse it’s all about horses helping people and people helping horses. It’s about developing relationships with some amazing animals and discovering your best self.

In our work, we constantly witness how horses nurture, inspire and heal a person’s spirit, mind and body. We strive to provide a safe, guided and inclusive environment in which our clients can acquire tools and confidence to learn about themselves and each other.

Through honest interactions, the horse(s) and human facilitators help our clients understand how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors affect each relationship. 

Equine-assisted learning has been proven to be an effective tool to: 

  • Increase self-confidence
  • Develop emotional regulation
  • Improve verbal and non-verbal communication skills
  • Build trust
  • Improve social skills
  • Enhance teamwork

The interactions with horses in an outdoor setting are designed to provide an alternative environment and activities that are positive, supportive, and inclusive.
