Our Mission
In partnership with horses, Breaking Free provides an alternative therapy that encourages and challenges people to overcome the effects of trauma, emotional hardships, and other barriers to quality of life. Breaking Free is located on the North Fork River in the Shenandoah Valley, Virginia.

Bustin' Loose

Bustin’ Loose program specializes in addressing veterans' needs. Here at Breaking Free we understand that PTSD doesn't go away within a prescribed time-frame and that war-time service and experience changes a person forever.  Through equine assisted therapies, Breaking Free creates a safe space for reflection and growth, encouraging a re-uniting of mind and body. Breaking Free also recommends Military One which provides information about a variety of support services for veterans:

Horses Helping Families

Horses Helping Families program is designed to improve family communication and life transitions. We also aim to improve team-work dynamics within organizations. At Breaking Free we strive to support mental health for individuals, family members, and professional relationships with colleagues and co-workers. Our clients work through a carefully designed mental health experience with horses that meet the client's needs.

Hold Your Horses!

Our Hold Your Horses! program was created for at-risk or court ordered teens. A team consisting of:
  1. An equine specialist
  2. A mental health specialist
  3. And the horse
works with each client, adjusting the exercise and activities to accommodate the needs of that client. Hold Your Horses! focuses on cognitive-behavioral skills that are relevant when working with impulsive and aggressive teens. For a referral form call Paul or Jenny Foltz at 540-896-8505 or email jennyfoltz.breakingfree@gmail.com
