Programs

Equine Assisted Therapy Services have been proven highly effective in enhancing the quality of life for participants.

Horses enter each interaction without personal bias, fostering an environment of safety and trust. They are a natural instructor, reflecting the participant’s strengths, weaknesses, and growth in real-time.

Through horsemanship, participants develop crucial life skills such as effective communication, self-control, problem-solving, and resilience. In overcoming obstacles, emotion identification and management is practiced under the guidance of the professional facilitator.

Most importantly, with the realization of strengths and newfound skills, self-esteem blossoms.

At Redemption Hill Ranch, we offer two paths: a 12-Week Horsemanship Program and Decompression Sessions. Read below to learn more.

Horsemanship

Health

Participants are engaged in programming and practices to evaluate and improve emotional regulation, resiliency, and self-esteem under the guidance of the Certified Recreation Therapist. Standardized assessments, self-evaluation, and reporting provide scoring that is compiled and evaluated over 12 session increments, verifying the efficacy of this unique program with its inherent benefits.

Horsemanship

Redemption Hill Ranch provides an all-encompassing Horsemanship education program. Participants learn equine care, handling, and riding, building from the ground up.

Truth

The Redemption Hill Ranch program is built upon the truths of the Christian faith. Programming includes curated Biblical study to encourage participants to identify God’s goodness in who He created them to be and His loving care

For Our HEROES:

Active Duty Military, Veterans, First Responders, and Caregivers

At Redemption Hill Ranch, we recognize the silent weight our HEROES carry. Decompression Sessions offer a space of peace, presence, and restoration for those who serve on the front lines—military members, first responders, and caregivers.

These sessions are designed with the unique stressors of HEROES in mind, including considerations from Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) practices. In a calm, natural setting, participants are invited to step away from chaos and into connection—being seen, heard, and supported by a horse.

Horses are highly attuned to human emotion and offer nonjudgmental companionship. Simply being near a horse has been shown to reduce cortisol levels (the body’s primary stress hormone), regulate breathing and heart rate, and promote a sense of calm. The bond formed between human and horse allows burdens to be shared—physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

Each session includes time in the arena to build relationship and trust with a horse. Decompression Sessions can be booked as single visits or a series. With ongoing sessions, horseback riding can be incorporated to support emotional insight, physical regulation, and reinforce coping strategies in real time through the horse’s feedback.

Whether you’re carrying the weight of what you’ve seen, or holding space for others in crisis, our Decompression Sessions provide a sacred pause—a place to breathe, connect, and begin to heal.
