Therapeutic Horses of Saratoga_Military Groups

Therapeutic Horses of Saratoga is proud to partner with The Dake Foundation for Children to expand access to Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy for children and young adults up to age 21 who face financial barriers to mental health care. This initiative is made possible through the Foundation’s Community Grant Program, which supports inclusive and accessible programming for children and families in our community.

Through this partnership, participants engage in Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy alongside a Licensed Clinician from ECS Psychological Services and an Equine Specialist from Therapeutic Horses of Saratoga. Sessions take place in a supportive farm environment and offer an experiential approach to therapy that encourages emotional processing, confidence building, and healthy coping skills.

This youth-focused initiative is modeled after our Freedom Rein Protocol and reflects our ongoing commitment to making mental health support accessible to the children and young adults in our community.

To be considered for this program, families should contact our clinical partners at ECS Psychological Services by emailing intake@ecsps.com.
