We are raising funds for youth and adult services at Therapy Ranch

At Therapy Ranch, our clients experience a safe and nurturing environment where they build emotional regulation, confidence, connection, and resilience. One client, who received our scholarship recently shared:

"Throughout the therapy, I was grounded in how the horses were

helping and healing parts of me that were locked inside."

Through equine-assisted therapy sessions, our clients are able to connect with parts of themselves that other methods cannot reach. That is one example of the impact your support can have.

In 2025, Therapy Ranch provided 543 total client hours, including 38 hours of individualized care for adults and 34 hours for youth. Thanks to generous donors, we were able to support six scholarship clients—two youth and four adults—providing $3,600 in financial assistance to ensure access to healing services. Our partnership with Franklin Wright Settlements allowed us to serve 45 students through 207 hours of Equine-Assisted Learning, offering essential social–emotional support and experiential growth opportunities. This year, 33 dedicated volunteers contributed 138 hours to keep our programs strong and our herd supported. Your continued generosity makes this impact possible, helping us extend compassionate, trauma-informed care to those who need it most.

Our individual and group sessions—facilitated by Eagala-certified, mental health professionals and equine specialists—serve individuals navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, life transitions, ADHD, autism and more. Horses and the natural environment play a crucial role in the therapeutic process, providing honest feedback, grounding, and opportunities for clients to practice new skills in a safe, hands-on manner.

Your contribution—whether financial support, in-kind donations, or volunteer involvement—directly sustains:

  • Access to trauma-informed equine-assisted psychotherapy for families with limited resources
  • Care and well-being of our therapy horses
  • Community programs, school visits, retreats, and special events that promote healing and connection.

We would be honored to partner with you as we continue expanding access to mental health care in 2026. Together, we can help more individuals discover their strength, resilience, and potential.
