Day 22- Sisters in Service - Maurette Hanson
I have been hearing so much about equine therapy and how it helps veterans that I just had to interview Maurette Hanson. She has over 30 years in equine managements and over 25 years as a student and practitioner of natural horsemanship. She is a Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship (PATH) Certified Therapeutic Riding Instructor and PATH, Intl. Certified Equine Specialist in mental health and learning. Maurette is the Founder/Director of Healing Horse Therapy Center since 2011, located in Monroe, NC.
Her program provides an environment that is safe emotionally which is essential in equine assisted mental health. Her education to the work and willingness to look outside the box of traditional therapeutic horsemanship and greatly needed today.
She started a new program called Horses for Veterans alongside the organization called HopeWay - an in patient/out patient residential mental health facility. They just started their new program in January that is specifically for Veterans and they are providing alternative and integrative modalities. We are providing the equine services for them. Dr. Justin Johnson is the Director and Veteran. I will attach their information. This is a big deal for our Horses for Veterans program. I will attach their current info and maybe attach to my info? Thank you!
