The Farm-Based Therapy Model:
Cultivate Care Farms is an outpatient therapy setting that serves over 180 clients per week. As part of developing Farm-Based Therapy as an effective evidence-based treatment for clients with mental health challenges, CCF is currently participating in two IRB-approved research studies. Farm-Based Therapy is based on the following tenets: Hands-on Experience, Mindfulness, Sustainability, The Life Cycle, and Community.
This non-traditional form of therapy is most effective with clients with the following diagnoses: ADHD, Autism, Adjustment Disorders, Anxiety, Depression, Selective Mutism, and Trauma-Based diagnoses. We are a team of 13 staff members, and 9 Board members.

Consider joining us as we continue to grow our practice, develop an exciting new therapy modality, and destigmatize mental health supports in our community and beyond.
