Equine Therapy for First Responders

We help you discover your strengths, define your values, and find purpose in your passions, empowering you to navigate your life story to create a lasting impact.

For lasting resilience

Our program for first responders is specifically designed to address the effects of ongoing exposure to traumatic events.

By exploring the brain's automatic responses and learning to regulate them after such incidents, first responders gain valuable insights and understanding. This is achieved through the unique and experiential partnership with horses.

of first responders experience symptoms related to mental health issues, yet for many it’s difficult to obtain the growth and healing necessary in a clinical setting.

In the initial program, small group sessions are held weekly for four weeks, tailored to fit the demanding schedules of first responders. For those requiring more specialized care, we also offer smaller group and individual sessions. Contact Unbridled today to determine the best path for you.

"The horses really teach you about yourself."

“I didn’t want to attend any type of counseling or admit there was something wrong. However, it was refreshing to know that, from the very beginning, the sessions focused on what was RIGHT with me instead of what was wrong with me.”

First Responder

"It helped me reconnect with strengths I forgot I had or used. Sometimes I just do things without realizing it is a real strength of mine. Now I can see that it is."
