Ground-based psychotherapy with horses at 7 Oaks, in partnership with k-Equine. No riding required.
Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) is ground-based therapy with horses. There is no riding, and no horse experience is needed. Sessions are led by a licensed mental health therapist and an equine specialist.
Horses are highly sensitive, social animals. Working alongside them can help people notice patterns, build trust, and practice new ways of relating—outside a traditional office.
7 Oaks Stables partners with k-Equine so clients can meet for sessions here at the barn in Mableton.
Adults (18+) can use EAP as stand-alone therapy or alongside other care. Adolescents (roughly 6th–12th grade) work with k-Equine while keeping a primary therapist.
Individual sessions are about 50 minutes. Many people plan a short series (often around 8–12 sessions). Pricing and intake are handled by k-Equine.
Reach out to Kelly Stephens, LMFT at k-Equine to learn more or schedule.
