About

We are a children's psychotherapy program specializing in equine facilitated psychotherapy. We believe that learning to do things differently can be hard - we might as well have fun while we are doing it! Most of our clients have tried more traditional office approaches and have found that they didn't work for them. We believe that children should be given space to play and explore. It is through these experiences that children learn about themselves and the world around them. View 6 Photos

EFP is the combination of horseback riding and therapy. Not all of our clients choose to ride and we offer other experiential modalities as well. Animals are incorporated into most of our work. We believe in meeting clients where they are and moving forwards together as a team.

Animals and the farm are a huge part of our practice. All of our offices are located in barns. All are heated! We believe that connecting with animals helps us understand how children engage socially with others. It provides us an opportunity to .address social issues in the moment.
