About Our Program
Equine Assisted Therapy Michigan provides a calm, supportive space where individuals can grow, heal, and explore personal strengths through meaningful interaction with horses. Our program is rooted in the belief that horses offer a unique form of feedback, connection, and presence that helps people build confidence, develop communication skills, and discover new ways of navigating life’s challenges.
We guide participants through hands‑on, experiential activities with our horses—always from a foundation of safety, respect, and compassion. Each session is designed to meet people where they are, helping them gain insight, practice self‑awareness, and strengthen emotional resilience in a natural and peaceful environment.
Located in Michigan, our team is dedicated to creating an inclusive, welcoming space for children, teens, and adults. Whether someone is seeking personal growth, stress relief, or simply a deeper connection with horses, we strive to offer an experience that supports each individual’s goals.
How Sessions Work
Each session is built around calm, hands‑on interaction with our horses in a supportive, guided environment. We focus on experiential activities—such as grooming, leading, observing herd behavior, and simple ground exercises—that help individuals explore communication, trust, and personal awareness at their own pace.
Sessions take place on the ground, not riding, and are always structured with safety, respect, and comfort in mind. Our team offers gentle guidance and reflective conversation to help participants notice what the horses are communicating and how those moments connect to everyday experiences. Each meeting is unique, shaped by the individual’s goals and the natural way horses respond in the moment.
Whether someone prefers quiet time connecting with a single horse or learning new skills through structured activities, we tailor each session to support emotional growth, confidence building, and personal insight.
