The people beside the horses
Peer specialists, horse people, volunteers and neighbours, united by a belief that everyone deserves a place to feel capable.
Sarah Long
Founder & Certified Peer Specialist
Sarah Long is a Certified Peer Specialist with many years of experience walking alongside people of all ages and a wide variety of abilities, specializing in addiction recovery and mental health. She also holds a certification through PATH International (the Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship International).
Sarah founded Heartland Healing With Horses on a simple belief she has seen proven again and again: horses meet people exactly where they are. Her approach blends peer support (the understanding that comes from shared experience) with the honest, non-judgmental feedback only a horse can give.
Horses meet people exactly where they are. My job is to help people meet themselves there, too.
