Take Heart Counseling & Equine Assisted Therapy
Experience hands-on, engaging learning with equine-guided workshops designed for families, teams, and small groups. These experiential workshops use horses as partners in learning, helping participants practice communication, leadership, and collaboration skills in real time.
Whether your goal is to prevent challenges, strengthen relationships, or resolve current conflicts, team-building workshops with horses create meaningful, memorable learning experiences that translate directly into everyday life. Participants leave feeling more connected, confident, and equipped with practical skills they can use immediately.
Every equine-guided workshop is tailored to the specific needs of your group. Whether your focus is improving communication, building trust, or navigating conflict, we work with you to design activities that address your goals.
By engaging with horses in interactive exercises, participants gain insight into group dynamics, practice problem-solving, and strengthen interpersonal skills—all in a safe, supportive outdoor environment.

Families, including blended or newly formed families
Couples and marriage-focused groups
Professional teams and workplace groups

“While our discussions were powerful, what made the biggest impact for me was slowing down and remembering to get present in the moment. If I can learn to do that at school or in meetings, it will make a positive difference in how I can influence the community.”
– School District Administrator
“I came years ago, but I still remember driving home after a workshop with my coworkers. I couldn’t stop thinking about how the horses interacted with us differently when we were in ‘task mode’ vs. when we were more relational. It made me step back and ask the question for myself: am I going through my life in task mode, or am I connecting with others along the way?”
