Equine Assisted Psychotherapy

What is Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) and Equine Assisted Learning (EAL)?

Our EAP Program involves equine activities set up and facilitated by a licensed mental health professional and a horse professional. The goal is to build skills such as personal responsibility, anger management, healthy coping, self-confidence, and self-control.

We also have sessions designed for Therapists, Teachers, Administrators, Social Workers and their staff.  They will be taught how Equine Assisted Therapies can help their organizations.

EAL develops life skills and utilizes the non-verbal relationship between horse and human. It is particularly effective with exceptional students, those at risk of dropping out, and survivors of many types of trauma.

Stepping Stone School of Horsemanship is staffed with dedicated, hard-working professionals, and volunteers. Executive Director, Lia Sader, is a certified EAGALA (The Equine Assisted Growth and Learning Association) Equine Specialist. She is also a NARHA (North American Riding for the Handicapped Association) and EFMHA (Equine Facilitated Mental Health Association) member.

Nancy Perleberg is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), M.S., and is a certified Mental Health Specialist thru EAGALA Founder Greg Kersten’s OK Corral Series.

Recycled Feed Bags

The mission of T-Oats is to help feed and care for rescued horses and assist in making the healing connection between humans and horses.

Whether it is to feed and care for rescued horses or to help make a connection between humans and horses who need "healing", our goal is to help facilitate that connection through the sale of T-Oats (totes). Creating multi-use shopping bags/totes from feed bags also keeps #5 recycle plastic bags out of the landfills or off of burn piles . . . an added environmental benefit!
