ART AND EQUINE THERAPY
A unique approach that supports personal exploration through creative practice that has the horse-human-nature connection as its foundation.
What We Do
EQUINE THERAPY
Equine Therapy is an interaction between horses and people designed to promote experiential learning in a safe, supervised space.

ART THERAPY
Art Therapy is a form of expressive therapy that uses the creative process of making art to improve a person’s physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

ECO THERAPY
Eco Therapy on more than 150 acres of bushland and pasture, orchard, nature trails and wildlife. We can offer immersion sessions in nature – with or without a horse or art experience.
Equine, Art and Eco Therapy are supported significant bodies of research that cross many disciplines including mindfulness, trauma and PTSD, eco-psychology and cognitive behavioural therapy.
For many participants the relational nature of the horse experience is a profound benefit that provides a healing outcome and deeper sense of what it is to be human.
art, equine and eco therapy are a natural fit together that offer profound benefits as individual modalities and an integrated approach in the natural world.

We are one of the longest standing Equine Therapy facilities (established 2005) in the Yarra Valley.
We work with children and adults and provide sessions for NDIS and private clients.
