Why Therapeutic Riding?

Individuals with almost any cognitive, physical and/or emotional disability can benefit from safe, supervised interaction with equines. Because horseback riding gently and rhythmically moves the rider’s body in a manner similar to a human gait, riders with physical disabilities often show improvement in flexibility, balance and muscle strength.
For individuals with mental or emotional challenges, the unique relationship formed with the horse can lead to increased confidence, patience and self-esteem. Therapeutic riding gives many of our students the opportunity to set aside crutches, wheelchairs and impairments while in the saddle.
Therapy experts have found that individuals with challenges respond to horses in ways that can’t be duplicated in traditional clinical environments. Our horses accept unconditionally and the bonds that develop become a vital part of the therapy.
*NOTE: New therapy clients must fill out a New Client Form. All riders must fill out a Liability Waiver and Rider Agreement.

Abuse and Trauma Program
9 times out of 10, an unhealed trauma is the cause of a substance use disorder. Equine assisted therapy is one of the most effective ways to heal from the devastating effects of all trauma – anxiety, depression, flashbacks, night terrors, panic attacks, substance abuse, etc.
We have Peer Specialist led sessions that incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for individuals and groups that have suffered severely life altering traumatic events such as childhood or adult sexual/physical abuse, service combat or severe neglect.
Individual or groups available based on assessed need.
The groups consist of 3 to 5 clients meeting 2 to 3 times per week for two hour sessions. Replacing the painful memory with healing ones, filled with peace and joy, experiencing how to use the life skills that effectively transform the debilitating effects of trauma into the foundation stones to build a stronger heart, mind and spirit.
We are happy to coordinate and work with your mental health provider!

VETERANS SERVICES
Dream Power Therapy serves many individuals and groups with many needs and challenges. And while our mission remains to partner to provide these services at as little cost to our clients as possible, Dream Power is committed to offering a 100% exemption when it comes to services for our veteran clients. We do sometimes work with individual veterans that insist on paying their way, and will respect their wishes and offer them the opportunity to do what they have always done, to serve as a method to fulfill any obligation they may feel. That can come in many forms of volunteering with Dream Power from working with other veterans and clients, to helping with the herd or maintenance of the barn and facilities. Veterans interested in any of our services are encouraged to contact us directly for more information or simply book an introductory ride and let us know your military status to receive complementary services. Family of military and veterans receive a 30% discount.
