"Where Nature Meets Nurture"
At Red Bird Cottage and Farm, your therapy session won’t take place in a traditional office setting. Instead, you’ll find yourself in a peaceful, tranquil equestrian/lake environment designed to promote healing and connection. Imagine casting a fishing line into the lake as you talk with your counselor, or sitting quietly as horses graze nearby — all while engaging in meaningful therapeutic work. This serene setting offers a truly innovative and holistic approach to mental wellness. Come discover a space where you can heal, grow, and feel whole again — naturally and authentically. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all therapy. Every counseling plan is customized to fit your needs, your pace, and your goals — whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, or simply seeking clarity and support.
🕊️ Boutique, Relationship-Centered Approach. As a boutique practice, we intentionally keep our caseloads smaller so we can give each client the time, attention, and care they deserve. You'll always feel seen, heard, and supported — not rushed or overlooked.
🤝 Warm, Welcoming Environment. We cultivate a space that feels safe, compassionate, and free of judgment. From your first visit, we aim to make you feel at home — because healing happens best when you feel truly comfortable being yourself.
🌟 Care That Goes Beyond the Couch. We’re deeply invested in your well-being — not just during sessions, but in your day-to-day life. We take the extra steps to check in, collaborate, and walk alongside you throughout your mental health journey.
❤️ A Family Feel. At Red Bird, you're not just another client on the schedule. You're part of a community. We strive to make sure every person feels respected, supported, and deeply cared for. At Red Bird Cottage and Farm, we believe in the power of self-care and the healing connection between humans and horses. Our Wellness Horsemanship Program is a unique, goal-directed experience designed to nurture emotional well-being, self-awareness, and personal growth. Whether you join us weekly or whenever your schedule allows, this journey of self-discovery and healing offers something for everyone seeking peace amidst the busyness of daily life. Through mindful horseback riding or simply connecting with our horses from the ground, you'll explore core beliefs, build self-awareness, and experience the unconditional presence and peace that horses naturally offer. You don’t need prior riding experience—just a love for horses, nature, and a desire to reconnect with yourself in a supportive and serene environment.
🌿 If you love horses, the outdoors, and peaceful surroundings, this program is for you. ✨ Give yourself something meaningful to look forward to—check out our Wellness Horsemanship Program today.
