🌿 Why You Don’t See Many Client Photos from STAT® Inc? Because .
While we sometimes capture photos during sessions, they’re shared privately with families — not online. Even though many of our programs are learning-based rather than psychotherapy, we still follow HIPAA-level privacy standards because protecting trust matters more than promotion.
We don’t use clients’ faces or stories for marketing. Instead, we let the impact — and the horses — speak for themselves. 🐴. 💫

STAT strives for equality of ALL in a society without barriers, to help every human reach their full potential.
STAT provides EAP/EAL and Hippotherapy services; we also offer restorative retreats and can customize a program to your needs:
>> Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (a mental health treatment that incorporates horses in a variety of activities that stimulate growth and learning for clients) We utilize the EAGALA modality, which provides for a powerful and effective therapeutic session with a collaborative effort between a licensed mental health professional, a horse professional, and the horse(s) to facilitate treatment goals. (
>> Hippotherapy (Speech, Physical & Occupational Outpatient Therapy) We utilize horses as the therapy tool and licensed therapists trained by the American Hippotherapy Association).
Although STAT’s mission includes service to individuals with physical disabilities and emotional challenges, we also understand that everyone needs healing: families, parents and caregivers, siblings, and the community as a whole. The Ligonier Therapeutic Center is owned and operated by STAT Inc., a 501(c)3 public charity. The LTC is located at 24 Stom Road, Ligonier. Here, we offer peace for the family as a whole in a serene, inviting atmosphere. Come relax, enjoy the horses, the views, and either watching or participating with your loved ones in equine-assisted activities.... Our unique and innovative programs are designed to enhance a person’s abilities, invite learning, and improve quality of life.
