Frequently Asked Questions

How can equine-assisted therapy benefit my child?

Equine-assisted therapy can improve emotional regulation, social skills, and physical coordination in children. The gentle nature of horses helps build trust and confidence.

Are the sessions conducted outdoors with the horses?

Yes, our therapy sessions are primarily held outdoors with the presence of our therapy horses, weather permitting. Being in nature amplifies the therapeutic experience and deepens the connection with the horses. Additionally, we have a dedicated therapy room for indoor activities and table work when needed.

What ages of children do you work with?

We work with children of all ages, from 12 months to early adulthood, customizing our services to suit the unique needs and developmental stages of each individual.

Do you accept Autism Funding?

Yes, we do accept autism funding! To begin, simply submit a request to pay form, and once it's approved, we’ll be happy to process the funding. If you have any questions or need assistance with the form, please feel free to send us a message!

Do you offer therapeutic riding?

At this time, we do not offer therapeutic riding. Our sessions primarily focus on unmounted, ground-based equine-assisted therapy, where children work alongside the horses in their natural environment. In certain situations, and depending on the individual child and the bond they build with a specific horse, limited lead-line time in the saddle may be offered.

That said, therapeutic goals such as emotional regulation, confidence, communication, and connection are effectively achieved through unmounted activities. Horses are deeply attuned to human emotions and body language, allowing meaningful therapeutic work to occur from the ground while maintaining a safe, supportive, and child-centered approach.

Do you offer in-home autism therapy?

Yes, Soaring Spirit Wellness offers limited in-home autism therapy and behaviour intervention depending on location, goals, and availability. In-home sessions may be available in Maple Ridge, Whonnock, Mission, Abbotsford, Pitt Meadows, and surrounding communities. These sessions can support communication, emotional regulation, transitions, routines, independence, play skills, early learning, following directions, and behaviour goals within the child’s home environment.
