Veterans/Military Program

We proudly serve military members, veterans, their families, and individuals from all walks of life.
​Whether you're navigating career changes, divorce, adjusting to a new baby, or coping with the loss of a loved one, and everything in between, we're here to help. Our goal is to empower you to realize your purpose and achieve your goals, even when life presents significant obstacles.

Active Duty

Military personnel who need support beyond what the psyche doc on base offers. We can help support your mental health needs whether you are looking to stay in or looking to separate.

Getting Out?

Picture
Military personnel who transition from military life to civilian life and aren’t sure what’s next. We can help you navigate the stress that comes with your transition into the civilian world.

Military Families

Deployments or frequent PCSing can wreak havoc on military families.
We can help support you during those transitions or help with healing the damage done from past experiences.

Veterans

Picture
Veterans who have tried therapy but it’s not working (enough). Something still isn’t right but can’t quite put your finger on it? Or do you know exactly what’s going on but would rather not talk about it? We can help you understand what’s happening and help you learn the tools you need to regain control of your mind/thoughts/actions.
How does it WORk?
The Eagala Model is a team approach that includes a licensed, credentialed Mental Health Professional, a qualified Equine Specialist, and horses working together with the client in an arena at all times.
When inside the arena, all the work is done on the ground with the horses front and center, deliberately unhindered and never ridden, and allowed to interact with the client as they wish. This creates the space for the client, with the support of the professional facilitators, to reflect, project, and make deep connections.
What model do we use?
We use the EAGALA Model of solution oriented, experiential therapy to help assist you in attaining your goals through finding your strengths and overcoming the obstacles that maybe in your way. No horse experience is needed to enjoy this experience. All one needs is to be curious and closed toed shoes. There is no riding in this program. We offer a safe place to explore yourself and others through the interaction with the horses.
Do we need horse Experience?
