WHAT WE DO
Ranch Hands Rescue fills a special niche in mental health counseling services in that we specialize in treating the more complex trauma cases, such as victims of severe and repetitive abuse and people not making progress in their current treatment programs. We heal emotionally battered people and severely abused animals, then give them a purpose at Ranch Hands Rescue - through our Equine and Animal Assisted Counseling (EAAC) program, facilitated by specifically selected Licensed Professional Counselors and LPC Interns.
BECOME A PARTNER
When you partner with Ranch Hands Rescue you will know that you are dramatically changing the quality of life for a person in need or an abused animal. Here is one of their stories.
DAISY - Was brought to us with a broken neck
AGE: 8-year old goat
AT Ranch Hands Rescue: 5-1/2 years
Daisy was malnourished, scared, and distrustful toward humans. After working with
veterans suffering from PTSD and children in our counseling program, she learned to not
only trust but to cherish human touch again.
Daisy has become an important perspective change, for many individuals in our programs,
as she provides the opportunity for them to serve her needs and witness her own trust and
love -in humans be renewed through her living happily in the sanctuary of Ranch Hands Rescue.
