Runnin Free Ranch offers accessible Trauma-Informed Equine Assisted Services (TI-EAS), designed to support individuals through the power of human-horse connection.


Our programs, which are based on Natural Lifemanship principles, integrate trauma science, attachment theory, and experiential learning to foster healing, personal growth, and mental well-being.

​Two Distinct Programs at Runnin Free Ranch:

Trauma-Informed Equine Assisted Learning

(TI-EAL)

  • Guided by a trained professional in the Natural Lifemanship model that integrates trauma science and attachment theory, but does not provide clinical mental health treatment.
  • Focuses on experiential learning experiences that emphasize connection, trust, and skill development.
  • Under TI-EAL is our group program called Freedom TRAIL for youth and Operation Freedom for veterans.
  • Primary Goal

    Skill development, personal growth

  • Facilitation

    Non-clinical professionals

    Educational, personal growth, experiential

TI-EAL is ideal if you are seeking personal growth, relationship-building, or experiential learning.
