Equine-Assisted Programs
Healing through the power of horses.
- Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy (TF-EAP): A trauma-focused therapy using horse interaction to promote deep emotional healing, trust, and connection—especially for youth survivors.
- Equine-Assisted Learning (EAL): A hands-on, experiential program that teaches life skills, builds confidence, and supports emotional regulation through guided activities with horses.
The core of FBEAP is rooted in Christian principles, specifically the transformative power of the Holy Spirit and the teachings of the Bible. The process focuses on:
- Exposing unhealthy thought patterns: This reflects the biblical call for self-examination, as seen in verses like Romans 12:2, which speaks of renewing the mind to align with God’s will.
- Replacing with healthy, Biblical thought patterns: This echoes the idea that God’s truth brings healing and freedom (John 8:32). By adopting Biblical principles, individuals are set free to live the life God intended for them, filled with peace, purpose, and direction.
FBEAP also draws from the wisdom of horse herd dynamics. Horses operate on clear social structures and instincts that promote balance, safety, and harmony within the herd. Partnering with horses in FBEAP creates an opportunity to:
- Mirror human emotions and behaviors: Horses are incredibly sensitive to their environment and can reflect a person’s emotional state, providing immediate, non-verbal feedback.
- Highlight unhealthy patterns: Just as a herd instinctively eliminates threats to its well-being, working with horses helps identify and “expose” destructive thought patterns or relational dynamics that may be hindering personal growth.
- Encourage healthy behavior: The way a herd collaborates and thrives can serve as a model for adopting healthier, cooperative behaviors in our own lives.
This approach is designed to guide individuals away from damaging patterns of thinking and behavior, replacing them with biblically-based truths and spirit-led freedom, helping people step into the life God has called them to live.
Innocence Freed is one of the only programs in Nebraska offering on-site Equine-Assisted Learning and a Christ-centered equine philosophy specifically designed for survivors of trafficking and sexual exploitation. Unlike other models, our equine sessions are conducted in-house, ensuring a safe, controlled environment without the risk of exposure to unvetted individuals.
Our program aims to create a safe, supportive, and therapeutic environment where individuals can receive the care they need to achieve lasting recovery and mental wellness.
We offer flexible support for students and working survivors by:
- Extending hours & drop-in availability
- Offering childcare during groups
- Meal planning, errands, and wellness activities
- Social engagement and peer connection
