A unique approach to EFLP. Programming is planned around the needs of each individual client. Both individual sessions and group programs focus on building strong attachment relationships, and developing courage. Our goal is to create a place where all clients feel safe to experience new situations and emotions, practice skills and become comfortable with their own journey and personal growth Nature is infused into all of our sessions and become a large part of what the clients experience here. Although some activities take place indoors, clients work with the horses in the outdoor arena, on the nature trails or in the round pen. We will often go for nature walks, participate in mindfulness activities, and enjoy little hidden hideaways around the property. I also believe creativity and free play are a large part of personal growth. It allows the body to unwind and the mind to let go of tension. Art activities and free play are integrated into most sessions. These activities may include painting, drawing, coloring, art journaling, nature crafts and more. Although this is not a horsemanship school, or horseback riding facility, we do integrate basic horsemanship skills into the sessions. These skills help clients develop self confidence, leadership and communication skills. These skills are mainly ground work based and often include obstacle work and other equine safety skills. Depending on the client and his or her needs we may even progress to some riding activities. It is a slow process, and the focus is on building client skills not so much on building horse skills. This approach can be applied to a wide variety of clients including children, youth, adults, families and groups. Most important of all, no equine experience is needed to participate.
