Serving all of Humboldt County at our Fortuna and Arcata locations!

Our mission at Wild Souls Ranch is to promote community wellness through inclusive, trauma-informed services that empower both individuals and animals. Through meaningful, hands-on experiences with animals like horses, we create a safe and supportive space for healing.

Our programs use the
Equine Assisted Growth And Learning Association (EAGALA) model, a ground-based approach that invites participants to engage with horses in respectful, meaningful ways. Guided by trained facilitators, participants explore communication, emotional regulation, boundaries, and problem-solving.

We serve both youth and adults facing life, mental health, behavioral, or developmental challenges. Every program is tailored to meet participants where they are, honoring both human and animal well-being.

“A place where bonds are made, foundations are built, and spirits are healed.”
