Holding Space for Healing

Personal growth, emotional awareness, and healing for all ages guided by horses.

Free, private, and no obligation.

Equine-Facilitated Sessions That Help You Reconnect with Yourself

Spending time with a horse can change everything.

It can feel like the horses see right into your soul, and understand you even if you never say a word.

The video above is Storm, one of our horses here at InterMission. She’s just waiting for you to come meet her in real life, so she can help you find the peace and calm that she experiences here.

When you visit, the horses and our certified coach will help you learn to identify and trust your emotions, and to recognize and respect your intuition. Sessions are designed to meet you where you are, and allow you to move at your own pace toward your own goals.

This can feel like a radically different way to approach life. Indeed, it changes everything.

Who We Serve

InterMission supports people of all ages who may be feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or unsure of their place in the world.

You’re safe here whether you are:

  • seeking emotional growth
  • healing from past trauma, loss, or significant life stress
  • looking for healthier communication and stronger bonds with others
  • learning to navigate mental health or social challenges
  • living with neurodivergence or physical difference
  • searching for LGBTQIA+ affirming space

Your experience during a session will depend on your needs in the moment, and may include individual healing work, relationship building activities, or simply relaxing and bonding with the horses.

Mobile minis &
community sessions

You can bring miniature horses to you for informal, joyful experiences or community-based healing sessions. These sessions are ideal for schools, organizations, or group gatherings, and may be offered at reduced or no cost for community support initiatives.

A place to slow down, connect, and be seen

Situated on a working farm in rural Minnesota, InterMission was created to offer something different from traditional clinical or classroom settings.

The natural environment and the horses themselves play an active role in each experience, responding honestly and without expectation.

Sessions are designed to feel calm, supportive, and grounded in the present moment. The horses are not trained to perform tasks or behaviors; instead, they participate as they are, offering feedback through movement, presence, and interaction.

This combination of thoughtful facilitation, open space, and responsive animals creates opportunities for insight that feel organic, personal, and lasting.
