At My Empower Therapy, we are proud to refer our clients to Equine-Assisted Therapy in collaboration with Sharon D., founder of Soaring Spirits. This unique and powerful therapeutic approach uses the intuitive nature of horses to support emotional, behavioral, and developmental growth in children, youth, and families.
Why Equine Therapy?
Equine therapy, also known as Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP), helps individuals develop emotional regulation, social skills, confidence, and resilience. Unlike traditional therapy settings, working with horses allows clients to connect, communicate, and process feelings in real time, guided by a trained therapist and experienced equine specialist.
Who Benefits?
Equine therapy is especially effective for children and youth with:
•Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
•ADHD
•Anxiety and trauma
•Emotional regulation challenges
•Sensory integration issues
•Social or behavioral difficulties
Sharon brings decades of experience in equine-assisted work, combining her deep love of horses with therapeutic insight. Through Soaring Spirits, her programs emphasize empathy, trust-building, and healing through connection with nature and animals.
Location & Accessibility
Equine therapy sessions take place in a serene outdoor setting on her very own farm in Maple Ridge just a drive from our main clinic locations in Surrey and South Surrey. Our programs are designed to be inclusive, trauma-informed, and developmentally appropriate for all ages and abilities.
