More about this center
About the Program
Heal Therapy describes its approach as comprehensive, integrated and experiential. Its horse program uses horses as an adjunct to traditional outpatient counseling and substance use disorder treatment, not as a replacement for it. For background on this kind of work, see our guide to equine-assisted psychotherapy.
Counseling is provided by licensed marriage and family therapists, MFT interns and associate social workers, who are regulated by the California Board of Behavioral Sciences and the Board of Psychology.
Karuk Tribal Equine Programs
In association with the Karuk Tribe of California Human Services, Heal Therapy runs Equine Assisted Learning Groups that meet weekly at the Greenhorn Park Equestrian Center in Yreka. The groups ran in spring and summer of 2024 and 2025.
Sessions follow Natural Horsemanship principles: observing the herd, staying safe around horses, grooming, handling and trail etiquette. The focus is on team building, leadership, communication, cooperation, empathy, family relationships and creative problem solving. The program also uses its Whole Body Awareness concept, which centers on the non-verbal relationship between horse and person.
