Since 2016, and with over 75 years of combined experience across our team, Unbridled Horse Therapy has been dedicated to helping people of all ages and abilities through the healing power of horses. Horses have a unique ability to connect with individuals on a deep level, offering a sense of emotional support and safety; they never lie and hold us accountable to achieve goals with honesty and non-judgment. It’s magical
Therapeutic riding, also known as equine-assisted learning, has been proven to promote growth and healing for those struggling with physical and/or emotional health challenges and disabilities. Through experiential activities with gentle and majestic horses, trained instructors facilitate sessions that promote physical strength and coordination, self-reflection, communication skills, and emotional regulation through bonding and partnership with an equine friend.
“At 3 years old, Andrew had his first equine therapy lesson,” said Mary Katherine, Andrew’s mom. “He was minimally verbal and struggling in pre-school. Then when he mounted it and the horse started moving, the magic happened! Shortly after that he began to excel in school, started communicating more verbally, and progressed on anxiety management.”
Unbridled Horse Therapy's Mission is to effectively intercede and encourage unrealized potential for those with Special Needs and Disabilities through the connection between horse and rider.
