We are here to help you overcome life's obstacles
One of our favorite group activities is called "Life's Little Obstacles." Pictured below you see a group trying to get Charlie and Sassy over a jump that we set up. There are rules and consequences during this challenge, and every group comes up with different ways of getting the horse over the jump. We create a safe environment for participants that can help them overcome the personal obstacles in their own lives.

Group Therapy and Team Building
In our group programs, the mental health therapists use horses in interactive group activities with our participants. Here at Spirit Horse Ranch, rather than instructing and giving directions, we give participants the opportunity to discover for themselves the solutions to a given problem through our specifically designed equine assisted activities. Participants are encouraged to problem-solve, take risks, employ creativity and work together to find the solutions that are the best for them. Our activities are designed to challenge and empower participants to discover their own unique strengths while also learning new skills.
These activities encourage:
-
Communication
-
Problem Solving
-
Trust Building
-
Planning
-
Teamwork
-
Facing Fears
-
Cooperation
-
Understanding Self
-
Confidence Building
