Sweet T helped me check in with myself and set boundaries. I arrive feeling loaded down, and leave feeling light. Issa is learning valuable lessons in respect, gratitude, coping, connection, and bravery. Wild Hearts is a magical place.

I have seen positive changes in her ability to focus on and follow through with completing school work, as well as many positive changes in her personal self-confidence level...The experience is a great stress reducer.

Adoptive Parent

I realized that this huge animal in front of me was experiencing the same feelings I was...He let his guard down and let me in, and in doing so I realized that in those couple of hours I had done the same...I walked away relaxed and truly amazed at the whole experience. I would recommend this therapy to any and all veterans.

Darren P., Veteran

My daughter has learned to be patient, focused, tenacious and persistent while also trying to master her own emotions. Jessica is fun, easy going and levelheaded even during challenging situations…. Horses are great teachers. They are accepting, but honest in their interactions.

Parent

After about a year at Wild Hearts, my child is finding her voice through working with her horse. The program helps her understand herself better. I cannot express how much this program is helping her.

Avery had a really tough early childhood with a lot of loss and trauma. Wild Hearts saved us during a time when we did not know where to turn. Avery has blossomed. The work they do is priceless.
