Programs & Groups
At Medicine Horse, we offer therapist led equine facilitated group programs for individuals of all ages and life experiences. All sessions are ground based and take place alongside our horses, who serve as co facilitators through their natural, intuitive responses.
Our groups provide an experiential alternative to traditional talk therapy, supporting connection, growth, and healing in a shared outdoor setting.
How our groups work
-
All groups are led by licensed mental health professionals & trained interns
-
Sessions take place on the ground. We are not a therapeutic riding facility
-
Horses participate as co facilitators by responding naturally and without agenda
-
Participants engage in activities such as grounding, grooming, and leading
-
Most groups meet once per week for two hours over six weeks

"This program has helped raise my confidence back up. Going through breast cancer I felt so much was taken from me that I didn't recognize myself anymore. I am now feeling that my confidence is coming back and my mood has lifted. I look forward to Wednesdays because of this class. I feel like I can gain even more confidence if I were to take this class again... I am finding that I am loving to learn more about horses. I am so grateful that I have found this class and don't have to worry about how I would be able to afford this class. It's an amazing opportunity! Thank you for allowing me to be a part of it!"
