What Healing Looks Like Here
Healing is not linear — and the path that gets you there should be as individual as you are.
At Blazing Trails, every service is built on a foundation of evidence-based practice, deep clinical expertise, and something most therapy offices simply cannot offer — the grounding, honest presence of our equine partners.
Whether you are navigating complex trauma, addiction, or the quiet weight of simply not feeling like yourself, you will find here a space that takes your healing seriously. All services are trauma-informed, client-centered, and designed with one goal in mind — a life that feels worth living.
Healing That Happens in the Open Air
Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) at Blazing Trails Wellness Center combines DBT and EMDR with hands-on work with horses to support trauma and addiction recovery. Sessions take place outdoors, where horses respond honestly to a person’s emotional state—often surfacing insight that talk therapy alone doesn’t always reach.
Safe Connection Starts Here.
Animal-Assisted Psychotherapy (AAT) at Blazing Trails integrates the calming presence of animals into evidence-based clinical treatment, including DBT and EMDR. This approach can make it easier for clients to open up, especially those who find traditional talk therapy alone to feel too exposed or clinical.
Rooted in Relationship. Driven by Results.
Sometimes what you need most is a skilled clinician and a safe space to be honest. Traditional talk therapy at Blazing Trails draws from DBT, EMDR, and a deeply relational approach to help you understand yourself, regulate your emotions, and move forward with clarity.
Lead With Awareness. Build With Intention.
Blazing Trails offers equine-assisted leadership and team-building consulting for individuals and organizations. Working with horses helps build self-awareness, authentic communication, and emotional intelligence, translating directly into stronger leadership and team trust under pressure.
Blazing Trails Wellness Center is one of only three EAGALA-certified equine therapy providers in Utah, and the only one serving Salt Lake, Davis, and Tooele Counties.
Coming Soon · New Offerings
New ways of healing are on the horizon at Blazing Trails. Group Psychotherapy is forming, Equine-Assisted EMDR (EA-EMDR) arrives this fall, and EQUUSOMA — a specialized trauma intervention modality rooted in the horse-human connection — is scheduled for future training. The best is still coming.
