What We Do
We partner with horses to facilitate richer and deeper experiential learning. In doing so, we combine the transformational benefits of both experiential and therapeutic equine-assisted services (EAS) with immersive experiences to enhance essential life skills: the psychosocial abilities and positive inter-personal behaviors that enable individuals to make informed decisions, solve problems, communicate effectively, build relationships, and deal effectively with the demands and challenges of everyday life. Such skills include trust, assertiveness, self-worth, self-awareness, self-confidence, self-regulation, patience, empathy, healthy relationships, communication, problem solving, and more! And while activities with horses are fun, sharing authentic connections and relationships with horses is awesome!

Enhancing Life Skills …
Through our Mentoring with Horses sessions, we meet our participants where they’re at, respecting unique personalities, interests, strengths, challenges and goals, to help support the development or enhancement of essential life skills, particularly in the areas of self-worth, self-regulation, emotional awareness, healthy relationships, responsibility, and independence. Such skills include calmness, mindfulness, respect, empathy, trust, humility, confidence, communication, anger management, executive functioning, and social awareness.
Mindfulness
The practice of maintaining a moment-by-moment awareness of one’s thoughts, feelings, bodily sensations, and surrounding environment, without judgment, as they arise.
Attunement
The process of connecting with another by sensing and understanding the needs, emotions, and experiences of the other without explicit outward communication.
Authenticity
The degree to which one’s external actions are congruent with their internal values and desires, as exhibited in how one acts and changes in response to external influences.

We thank the Lord Jesus Christ for the blessings we receive daily and the ministry of service we are able to provide both to our horses and to you through Mentoring with Horses!
It is such a privilege to be able to share the joy and passion of horses with you, and a joy to see them receive and enjoy the love, appreciation, compassion, and respect they inherently deserve while helping them have authentic and transformational connections and experiences directly with you.
We want you to have amazing life-changing experiences of your own, and welcome your constructive comments and suggestions as we strive to offer encounters that are inspiring and sensational for all involved, to the glory of God, from Whom all blessings flow!
Sincerely, Victor & Helen Mathis, Mentoring With Horses LLC
