Our Mission

Equus Vita strives to promote health and healing with respect to each person’s individual goals, identity, and aspirations. We make every effort to create a safe environment in which our clients can explore their past and present as they seek to live a successful and fulfilled future.

 

What is Eagala?

  • The Eagala Model is a team approach that includes a licensed, credentialed Mental Health Professional, a qualified Equine Specialist, and horses working together with the client.

  • All the work is done on the ground with the horses front and center, deliberately unhindered and never ridden, and allowed to interact with the client as they wish.

  • The model creates the space for the client, with the support of the professional facilitators, to reflect, project, and make deep connections.

  • Therapy is experiential in nature. The client is allowed to interact with the horses and environment in a manner that helps them understand their experiences and how to make changes if desired.
