Mission Statement
At Speaking of Horses, we harness the unique connection between humans and horses to transform communication challenges into opportunities for growth. Through our specialized equine-assisted speech therapy, we create an environment where children find their voices, develop confidence, and build essential communication skills. Our dedicated team and therapy horses work together to provide accessible, innovative services that go beyond traditional therapy approaches. We believe every child deserves the chance to communicate effectively, and we're committed to making that possible through the powerful, evidence-based combination of horses and speech therapy.
