Where Nature Heals
and Connection Restores

At Ascend Healthcare, we believe that healing doesn’t just happen in therapy rooms—it happens in open skies, on wooded trails, and through meaningful connection with animals. Our Eco-Psychology and Animal-Assisted Therapy program is designed to ground clients in the present, awaken emotional insight, and strengthen self-regulation through nature-based and relational experiences.

Our Therapeutic Environments Feature:

  • Hiking trails, gardens, and outdoor mindfulness practices
  • Animal-assisted therapy with goats, horses, rabbits, and more
  • Equine therapy led by certified specialists
  • Hands-on farm activities that build responsibility and connection
  • Eco-psychology sessions that integrate nature into therapeutic goals

These experiences help teens reconnect to their bodies, regulate their emotions, and rediscover a sense of purpose and belonging—all while surrounded by the natural world.
