Nonprofit Overview

Causes: Counseling, Equestrian, Mental Health, Military & Veterans Organizations, Sports, Veterans

Mission: Soul to Soles Connection is dedicated to the mental health of our military and their families/caregivers. Participants, suffering from trauma, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) or Military Sexual Trauma (MST), are offered the time to overcome challenges and heal with the support of our professional facilitators – a licensed mental health professional, a certified equine specialist, and the horses. Our mission is to offer ground-based mental health treatment, with horses, focused on reducing the impact of trauma, while rediscovering confidence, compassion, and trust. We honor all by providing a supportive haven – a place where concerns and struggles can be explored and released. The experiential nature of working with horses, engages the active and retired military in their own healing process, reaching solutions that meet them squarely on their own terms. Our Core Values are Commitment, Courage and Faith, which is upheld through Honesty, Openness, Nature, Ownership, and Respect - HONOR.

The ladies associated with this organization are simply fantastic. Accommodating to your individual schedule, flexible to how you spend your time while there and (of course) kind/caring.

As opposed to being right beside you throughout your sessions, they hang back and let you own your individual process (talking about it when you’re ready). I found this very helpful.

I had never really spent much time around horses and was a little intimidated at first, but after a session or two for me it was great. The connection and experience you have with them is very unique and I enjoyed it quite a bit.

I HIGHLY recommend this organization to anyone!

This program helps Military Service Members and their families. Such a great work they are doing to help those struggling with their mental health. Clients find hope and healing through their connection with the horses - a unique way clients get the help they need.

Soul to Soles Connection is committed to helping our military veterans succeed in treating their ptsd symptoms, as well as, coping with life after the military. Truly a class act organization that has willed itself to be a staple of Equine-Assisted therapy in the country. The whole experience with the horses is a tremendous success as they can connect to you through basic instincts. I would recommend any and all veterans that are struggling to please reach out to Soul To Soles Connection. The devotion of the staff is top-notch and I guarantee that you'll be satisfied by the end of your session.

The total commitment and dedication of Soul to Soles Connection goes far beyond the hores and pastures. Equine Psychotherapy is gaining greater validation. Our military population has greatly benefited from this nontraditional therapy. Soul to Soles not only serves the military but also promotes removing the stigma behind mental health issues. Soul to Soles can be seen serving the community, championing military related causes and events and promoting mental health awareness. Soul to Soles Connection encompasses compassion.
