The mission of the HorsePower Equine Assisted Learning (HEAL) Foundation is to empower individuals and groups with a safe, professional, and therapeutic equine experience. HEAL supports the limitless emotional growth and healing potential created by the bond between horse and human.
HEAL was built to provide equine assisted psychotherapy services (EAP) directly to our veterans, first responders and their families.

Who's Coming
What to expect: HEAL uses a team of horses to help military, veterans, first responders, and their families recognize and overcome issues and behavioral patterns that are interering with their daily lives. Horses are intuitive and social animals. They mirror human body language. If you are impatient, the horse becomes impatient. It is this connection that provides us with metaphors and lessons about ourselves and leads us to change. This unmounted treament utilizes a licensed mental health professional and an equine specialist. Join the NU Club of Washington, DC to experience this training firsthand!
