Our programs do not require any previous horse experience, and you do not need to do any riding.
Our programs includes various activities designed with the client’s individual goals in mind, which include social-emotional learning goals, mental health support, trauma recovery and healing, as the focus for sessions. All activities are professionally facilitated and adapted to each client’s specific goals, needs, strengths, and personality.
Sessions can include and focus on leading horses, observing horses, obstacles with horses, trick training, grooming, breathwork, communication skills (verbal and non-verbal), regulation of emotions, exploring boundaries, exploring thoughts and/or actions, building connections, building trust, building confidence, exploring music/instruments with horses, and more.
*some basic riding can be incorporated into sessions when it is appropriate and if the horse and participant are ready and wanting to do so.

Crystal was recommended to me by a friend who found great success with her daughter. We have been bringing two of our foster children for regular appointments and have seen amazing results. She has helped with our kids anxiety, control issues and emotional regulation. We will soon be bringing another one of our kids to Crystal for help with other emotional issues that have not been resolved with talk therapy. We have high hopes for similar results that we have had for our other children. So thankful we have Crystal as a resource. She is very caring and intuitive.
Being a first responder I found myself struggling with PTSD and Anxiety.
After feeling lost, alone and like no one could help me, I have never felt at peace like I do now thanks to my sessions with the horses and Crystal.
It took time and work, but if I can do it, you can too!
My 15 son, who is autistic, has been working with Crystal and the horses for about 3 months. We have tried other equine therapy riding programs but my son never seemed to open up and progress in these programs. I wasn't sure about trying another program, especially one that did not focus on riding, but a friend of a friend told me how great Crystal is with her and her kids so I called, spoke to Crystal and arranged a session for my son.
He stayed engaged the entire first session and had fun. He continues to make progress in self-regulating, communication, and engagement. I highly recommend Crystal and her magic programs for everyone.
