Services

A wide variety of integrated services designed to help individuals overcome

With the help of some
very special horses.

Equine-assisted Physical therapy, Occupational therapy, and Counseling services are currently not accepting insurance.

TREE House now offers virtual services that focus on achieving personal therapeutic goals while building a bond with one’s chosen horse. Clients meet with a licensed mental health professional or licensed physical or occupational therapist for virtual sessions.

TREE House’s two largest therapy services are our Equine-assisted Therapy Services, also known as Hippotherapy, and Adaptive Therapeutic Riding. In Hippotherapy, clients meet one-on-one weekly with a licensed physical or occupational therapist for therapy sessions. Adaptive Therapeutic Riding sessions are led by a certified riding instructor, and clients may meet one-on-one or in small groups of up to three individuals. The focus is on building horsemanship skills in addition to achieving personal therapeutic goals.

Injured active military service personnel, reservists, or veterans are eligible to participate in our equine-assisted therapy services designed specifically for them called TH Freedom Reins. TREE House also offers services for individuals who are having difficulties coping with behavioral and/or emotional issues or have a diagnosed mental health condition. Our Equine-assisted Mental Health Services use the interaction with horses to address a variety of concerns including anxiety, building competency and resiliency, bullying, depression, improving relational skills, improving self-esteem, somatic, stress, and team building.

For children of all abilities ages 5 to 18, TREE House offers inclusionary summer camp opportunities at our facility in Wentzville.  Licensed therapists and certified riding instructors lead all camps to ensure everyone is able to enjoy and participate in all the activities. No horse experience necessary!
