We just love the title, “Somatic Awareness, Nature-Based Regulation, and Reflective Integration: An Outdoor, Nature-Based, Animal-Inclusive Experiential Workshop”!

Because I can never keep a secret…We are working on some very exciting stuff.

April 2026, is the 20 year anniversary of Hope-thru-Horses, Inc. Every time I feel like shutting the doors, retiring, going a different direction, in walks a fresh clinician wanting to join the team, a client wanting an animal-inclusive experience, or in this case the “right” partnership NC Retreats .

We’ve been wanting to serve everyone for much more than the “therapy hour”.

Here’s what we got brewing. We’ll see how it evolves.

“Below is a CE-ready program description written in licensure-appropriate, clinically grounded language that reframes the experiential elements using evidence-informed, ethical, and scope-of-practice–aligned terminology. The tone and structure are suitable for licensed social workers and mental health practitioners and can be adapted for CE approval applications.”

(It isn’t below.) We’ll release all of the details once it is approved.

🌱 Volunteers Needed at the Extension Office Community Garden! 🌱
The Extension Office is looking for a few strong, helping hands to assist with a small but important project at the community garden. They need help digging a post hole and installing a post and information mailbox by their pollinator garden.

All materials are provided (post, cement, and mailbox). Because the ground is very hard, access to a hole-digging auger would be a huge help!

If you’re able to lend a hand or have the right tools, they'd love to hear from you.

📧 Contact: Ashely Grubb
📩 Email: avgrubb@ncsu.edu

Thank you for supporting our community garden and pollinator space! 💚

🐎✨ We are honored to work with Heather Wilkerson — Hope-thru-Horses ✨🐎

It is with deep gratitude that we welcome Heather Wilkerson, owner of Parkton Place and founder of Hope-thru-Horses, into our Spring Mini Retreat. Heather is a licensed clinical social worker whose work is rooted in reverence for the profound human–animal bond and the healing intelligence of nature.

What began on a humble 2.5-acre farm grew into a living vision—one that now holds countless moments of connection, regulation, and transformation. Through Hope-thru-Horses, Heather brings animals and the natural world into therapeutic spaces, offering a grounded, compassionate approach that meets people exactly where they are.

During our retreat, Heather will invite us to step into the field with her horses, where you’ll be guided to surrender into a deeply soothing soundscape. With remarkable sensitivity, Heather observes the herd and shares gentle wisdom that helps translate horse medicine into insight—supporting you in understanding, integrating, and embodying your experience.

This is an invitation to slow down, listen beyond words, and receive the quiet guidance of the horses—held in safety, presence, and care. 🌿🐴

Humana

Since the Humana change Jan. 1, all of our checks were mailed to 162 Schmidt Lane, Lumber Bridge. We haven't had that address in 9 years. Humana sent all checks since Jan. 1 to that address and they were returned to Humana.

I've called numerous times in an attempt to update the address and get them readministered. Today, I attempted to change it on the Humana website, but nothing goes through on Chrome or Safari.
The representative wanted a claim from each individual check issued since Jan. 1. I'll create an excel sheet and letter to mail, but this is incredibly time consuming on top of receiving no reimbursement since 2024.

Is there a less tedious way to address this?

Anything you could offer would be greatly appreciated.

Heather

We had such a fantastic time with this group from day supports of supports. As always, the animals worked their magic.
