Through workshops and retreats in team building and skills development for organizations of all kinds, Berkshire HorseWorks offers the tools to cope, heal, compete, challenge, communicate, lead, empathize and thrive in today’s stressful world. We bring the amazingly powerful modality of Equine Assisted Psychotherapy and Equine Assisted Learning to the community to help augment, in a new way, the wellness and vitality of one’s own heart, the heart and soul of others, and the heart of our vibrant workforce.
Our herd of rescue horses has been providing life-saving treatment to children and families in the Berkshires since Berkshire HorseWorks was founded.
Now, in the time of Covid19, they need your help to stay healthy and alive, not succumbing to the devastating diseases they’ve been battling since their rescue. Because of the coronavirus, we’ve not been able to see paying clients since January, and thus there’s been no income to provide medication, treatment and food.
We are at a critical juncture and need to raise $11,350, which will sustain the herd until programming is again available.
They’ve been here for you – now they need your help!
Book Now and we will donate one session to an at-risk child or family!

I cannot begin to tell you how much I learned from you this year. It was my pleasure to work with you, Wendy, and the Boys
I always looked forward to Thursdays, as spending time with the boys was the highlight of my week.As well as having loads of fun at the site, I also learned a lot about how to a non-profit function, which I had never really fully understood before.
I will greatly miss you, but I’m sure find time to visit soon.Lots of love.
