Equine Assisted Mental Health uses horses to facilitate the therapeutic process. Participants can learn to groom, feed, and lead their horse. There are also various team building and bonding activities. The goal of the program is to develop emotional regulation, self-confidence, and responsibility. The session is supervised and guided by an Equine Specialist in Mental Health and Learning.

Equine Assisted Mental Health can be geared towards specific groups of participants such as;
