Welcome
Centaur Leadership Services (CLS) offers Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) and Equine Assisted Mental Health (EAMH) programs for community youth, undergraduates studying leadership, education, and human development, and graduate students pursuing a Master of Arts Degree in Counseling Psychology with a focus in EAMH.
Our philosophy is that through conscious relationship with horses, people are able to develop self awareness, emotional congruence, and healthy ways of being.
Through intentional facilitation of the inherent healing power and intuition of horses, and in combination with the therapeutic value of natural settings, Centaur Leadership Services seeks to provide a venue for increased personal awareness, shared growth and academic learning.

The program provides opportunities for partnerships with horses, programs for individuals, families and youth, and serves as an equine resource for the education and training of undergraduate and graduate students, as well as professional certifications.
