Healing Hooves Therapy

What Healing Hooves Therapy does

Healing Hooves Therapy (legal entity Healing Hooves LLC) is a privately-held therapy practice founded in 2016 and headquartered at 7495 W. Azure Dr., Las Vegas, Nevada. The firm operates with approximately 6 employees and delivers Equine Facilitated Therapy (EFT) — a ground-based, non-riding experiential modality in which horses serve as emotional mirrors — primarily to individuals, families, couples, and youth in the Las Vegas metropolitan area. The practice treats a broad set of clinical conditions including trauma/PTSD, anxiety and panic disorders, depression, ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, substance use disorder, and compulsive behaviors, and is led by Executive Director Kim Smith (MFT, LADC, AAMFT Approved Supervisor) with 25+ years of clinical experience.

The core technology stack is the EAGALA model of equine-facilitated therapy combined with Internal Family Systems (IFS), with sessions delivered either in-office or in the on-site arena. The firm extends its clinical platform through condition-specific service pages (e.g., autism, ADHD, substance abuse, trauma, depression), a graduate-student internship and clinical-supervision program, and a women's coaching product ('From Chaos to Clarity') that integrates one-on-one coaching with optional equine sessions. It also hosts community events such as Sound Bath with Horses and operates a horse-sponsorship donation program.

The business model is direct-to-consumer professional services: fee-for-service therapy sessions booked via the company website and a third-party scheduling platform (clientsecure.me), supplemented by event revenue (e.g., $45 Sound Bath admission), coaching program fees, and donations. Marketing is executed through organic social (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok), an SEO-optimized blog, monthly email newsletters, and community events. The company is privately held, has no disclosed external funding rounds, no parent company, and no enterprise customers; revenue, session pricing, and headcount history are not publicly disclosed.

Direct peers

• Mane Stream: Equine-assisted services center offering therapeutic riding and equine-facilitated mental-health programs for individuals and families; mirrors Healing Hooves' combination of clinical therapy, youth programming, and instructor/intern pipelines.
• Two Chairs: Multi-location in-person and hybrid therapy practice operating a similar client-matching, evidence-based, in-office model; comparable as an outpatient therapy practice competing for the same client demographic and clinician talent, though without equine specialization.
• Bright Spot Therapy: Equine-assisted psychotherapy practice serving individuals, families, and youth using horses in clinical mental-health work; directly comparable modality, client population, and service mix to Healing Hooves Therapy.
• Equest: Regional equine therapy center delivering therapeutic riding and equine-assisted mental-health programming to a comparable population of youth, veterans, and individuals with disabilities; overlaps with Healing Hooves in modality and target outcomes.
• EAGALA: The Equine Assisted Growth and Learning Association sets the certification model that Healing Hooves explicitly uses; EAGALA-certified practitioners and member centers operate the same ground-based EFT framework and serve overlapping mental-health client populations.

Broad incumbents

• Cerebral: Tele-mental-health company providing therapy plus medication management for anxiety, depression, and ADHD; addresses the same core clinical conditions Healing Hooves treats but at a national scale and lower price point.
• BetterHelp: Largest direct-to-consumer online therapy platform; targets the same individuals seeking convenient mental-health support for anxiety, depression, and relationship issues, but without the experiential/equine modality.
• Talkspace: Large-scale outpatient mental-health platform offering virtual therapy; competes for the same anxiety, depression, and trauma client pool as Healing Hooves but through a fully digital delivery model with much broader geographic reach.
• PATH International (Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship International): The leading industry body for equine-assisted services and therapeutic riding in the U.S.; PATH member centers provide adjacent equine-facilitated mental-health and disability programming and compete for the same grant, sponsorship, and referral dollars.

Others

• Pet Partners (formerly Delta Society): National therapy-animal organization that registers and trains animal-assisted therapy teams (including equine); enables rather than competes with Healing Hooves by providing the broader animal-assisted therapy framework and volunteer handler infrastructure.
