3 Pines Equestrian Ranch...
"Because
Love Never Fails"
Three Pines Equine Ranch is a facility that offers Interactive Equine Therapy; centering our specialty on
Preparatory Grief and Bereavement Counseling. Using horses, the ordinary office setting is replaced by arenas and round
pens; making it possible for counselors, to heal hurts and bring hope to all ages of people who have lost loved ones.
The unique character of each horse leads people to search inside.
*EAP-Equine Assisted Psychotherapy; part
of EAGALA where a Horse Professional and Licensed Therapist work together for a powerful and effective therapeutic approach.

anxiety, communication, and learning difficulties.

giving back to the community. Open to all children.
