History
connEQtions, Inc. was established in 2023 to facilitate the healing of traumatized individuals through partnerships with rescued horses.
We believe that everyone can overcome a traumatic past and lead a happy and fulfilling life. Our philosophy is rooted in the belief that healing ruptured attachment wounds through building connections with horses in a safe environment can provide a foundation for thriving vs. surviving.
What We Do
We fund trauma-informed equine-assisted psychotherapy and learning for survivors of trauma. All our programs partner with licensed, experienced trauma therapists and equine professionals to provide emotional and physical safety.
connEQtion Herd
The connEQtion Herd of rescued horses is an integral part of our funded programs, which assist both horses and humans in developing the patience, attunement, and communication skills necessary for healthy and connected relationships.
Peanut and Jesse are two recent examples of the more than 9 horses who are active participants in the therapy process to help humans heal from trauma through forming healthy connections.
Our Team
Our team is made up of licensed therapists and equine professionals who specialize in a variety of areas, including anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, and relationship issues. We are dedicated to providing personalized care to each of our clients and are committed to ongoing training and education to stay up-to-date on the latest research and techniques.
TF-EAP always requires a licensed, certified psychotherapist!
Our team has been trained in the Natural Lifemanship (NL) model because of the foundation in attachment theory.
Our Approach
Our team of experienced trauma therapists uses a trauma-informed approach, working collaboratively with our clients to identify their goals and develop a customized treatment plan. We also place a strong emphasis on building a trusting and supportive therapeutic relationship.
