Wait a second, you offer therapy with ANIMALS???

You bet! Whether bringing your pet snake to the office helps you relax, or you prefer to take a walk with your dog while we talk, FMHS strives for services that work for you!

For qualified clients, FMHS also offers limited equine assisted psychotherapy in Mokelumne Hill with our assistants Donny the miniature donkey, and Merida, Pilar’s half-arabian endurance horse! Services are always on the ground, and never under saddle (unless you have your own horse to use).

To find out more, please reach out!

Donny makes a friend wherever he goes! He teaches opposite action and self-awareness, personal space, self-care, and clear boundaries and communication skills—just by being himself! He is well paid in food and back rubs for his services.
