Meet Shorty: former roping champion, current professional greeter, permanent "Big Dog" energy.

This Quarter Horse spent his early years competing, but these days he's living his best life at Sabino. His responsibilities now include taking clients on desert trail rides, stopping for spontaneous breaks, and offering gentle head nudges when he senses someone needs one.

Unlike many equine therapy programs that focus only on groundwork, clients at Sabino actually ride. Shorty's the perfect partner for that. He's patient, present, and has an intuitive sense for meeting people exactly where they are.

The nickname "Big Dog" suits him. Because when a horse greets you like a golden retriever and somehow always knows when you need him, what else would you call him?

Why do we have a stone labyrinth? Well, getting lost is actually the point.

Our stone labyrinth is a walking path that our clients use to ground themselves, process emotions, or simply clear their heads between therapy sessions. Some go slow. Some go barefoot. Some walk it multiple times. There's no right way to do it, which is kind of the whole point.

It's walking meditation without the pressure of doing it "correctly." Just one foot in front of the other.

What's your favorite way to clear your mind when things feel overwhelming? Let us know in the comments.

Meet Susan Love, our new Lead Therapist!

Susan brings deep expertise in trauma treatment and a passion for getting to the root cause, not just managing symptoms.

She's trained in Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM), EMDR, Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR), trauma-informed care for eating disorders, and much more! Susan's philosophy is simple but powerful: healing can't happen without safety first. She's spent years specializing in the intersection of trauma, dissociation, and eating disorders, always focused on root causes rather than symptoms.

In her downtime, Susan enjoys spending time with her 3 dogs and 2 horses, as well as family and friends. She can often be found loving on her animals, soaking up the sun, attending sporting events, reading a book, or on a quest to find the next best dish or dessert in Tucson.

Show her a warm welcome by liking this post and commenting your favorite book so we can pass her some great recommendations!

Ever notice how your body remembers trauma even when your mind tries to move past it?

That's where Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR) comes in. This neuroscience-based therapy helps to move beyond just talking through memories and works directly with your brain's survival responses to guide your nervous system out of "stuck" patterns and back into safety.

DBR is part of our integrative approach at Sabino. It's one of many trauma-informed therapies clients can choose from based on what resonates with their unique healing process.

A little piece of Friday inspiration. 💙

We honor the courage it takes to keep choosing recovery and healing. Every step forward, no matter how small, is proof of resilience and your story is so much more than your setbacks.

The fireplace at Sabino is more than just a cozy spot. It’s where we gather for drum circles, s’mores, and meaningful ceremonies where we write down what we’re ready to release and watch it transform in the flames. This is a place for our community to meet and share their stories.

Our beautiful Tennessee Walker stands tall at 16 feet and brings just as much heart to her therapy work as she once did to trail endurance. Since joining Sabino in 2022, Star has become a gentle guide in group, individual, and EMDR equine therapy.

Healing isn't all therapy sessions and hard conversations.

Here, afternoons by the pool aren't just downtime; they're intentional. Rest matters. Processing matters. And sometimes, the most therapeutic thing you can do is simply sit in the quiet and let the desert work its magic.

Our 140-acre campus backs up to Sabino Canyon, giving you the kind of privacy and space you need. No crowds. No distractions. Just you, the mountains, and the time you need.

Our campus has history hidden in plain sight 👀

What you see here is our Branding Room that preserves antique elements from the 1930s. If you look closely, you'll find iron-branded beams, preserved Spanish Colonial furniture, and the original stone fireplace.

When this campus housed the Southern Arizona School for Boys, graduating seniors left their permanent mark by crafting hand-cast iron brands that they would use to brand the ceiling beams. Nearly a century later, those same pieces are still there! They're now a part of the living history woven throughout our 140-acre campus. These aren't replicas or aesthetic choices... they're authentic details that make every corner of Sabino feel distinct and intentional.

Are you a fan of antiques? Drop a comment—we'd love to hear what catches your eye.

Healing takes time. At Sabino Recovery, our 35-day program is designed with intention - giving the brain’s dopamine system time to rebalance, and creating space for deeper therapeutic work.

In those final days, clients often experience powerful breakthroughs - building trust, resilience, and tools that last well beyond treatment.

Meet Softy:

A true gentle soul with the personality of a golden retriever.
Softy retired from roping in 2023 and joined us at Sabino soon after. The name Softy was chosen by Thomas (one of our owners) with help from his son - and it couldn’t be more fitting!
