Sande School of Horsemanship is excited to officially announce our newest program: EquiTerra Integrative Mental Health - Connecting animals and nature with professional mental-health care for lasting wellbeing.
EquiTerra Integrative Mental Health offers unique therapeutic experiences that move beyond the confines of a traditional office setting. Therapy spaces include access to scenic trails and pastures, arenas, and comfortable indoor settings. This variety allows us to tailor the environment to the client's needs, offering flexibility for equine-assisted therapy, nature-based therapy or traditional talk therapy.
Our approach is holistic and trauma-informed, focusing on creating lasting change and wellbeing. Our programs utilize the calming and grounding presence of animals and the restorative power of nature to facilitate profound healing and personal growth. We proudly serve individuals, couples, and families dealing with a broad spectrum of mental health challenges, specializing in complex trauma and supporting clients with intellectual or developmental disabilities.
EquiTerra is committed to the belief that quality mental health care should be accessible to everyone. To help increase affordability, we offer self-pay options to see our Master-Level Counseling Interns for a rate of $75 per session, with sliding scale options available for those who qualify. Our LCSW will see clients one day a week starting in January and will accept many private insurance plans.
The EquiTerra team is led by Dominique Dubois, LCSW, who has 20 years of experience in social services and is dedicated to integrative, experiential therapies. Dominique oversees and works alongside our dynamic team of three Master-Level Counseling Interns: Brady, Christa, and Veronika. This collaborative structure ensures that every client benefits from a combination of seasoned expertise and fresh therapeutic perspectives, all while upholding the highest standards of professional mental health care.
