Designed for Veterans -Built on Trust
At Hearts Landing Ranch, we specialize in equine-assisted therapy for veterans facing PTSD, Military Sexual Trauma (MST), anxiety, and emotional challenges. Located in the heart of Northern California, our program is proudly the region’s only Eagala-certified military-designated site, offering a trauma-informed path to healing through meaningful, nonverbal connection with horses.
Unlike traditional talk therapy, equine-assisted psychotherapy (EAP) uses ground-based experiences with horses to help veterans process and heal from trauma. Our sessions are led by a licensed mental health professional, a certified equine specialist, and our incredible rescued horses, many of whom have overcome trauma themselves.
Whether you're a combat veteran, transitioning back to civilian life, or carrying the silent wounds of Military Sexual Trauma, our program offers a safe, confidential space to begin again. We understand military culture and the unique challenges that come with service, which is why many veterans find faster breakthroughs and deeper healing with horses.

"I don’t expect a quick fix to any of my PTSD and anxiety, but in attending this equine therapy enabled me to think, act, talk, and express my feelings and emotions about things I haven’t been able to express before, and I did so in a very safe and comfortable environment."
