“A friend recommended the Rise Canyon Ranch equine-assisted psychotherapy program to me for my daughter who was struggling in school, not doing her homework and isolating herself from friends and family. Initially, she did not want to attend therapy but said, “she would go because it was at the ranch not in an office.” Week after week, I watched my daughter grow and change. She became more confident, self-motivated and a leader at school. I am so thankful to Rise Canyon Ranch, the staff and the horses for helping my adolescent to become a confident teenager.”
