More About Our Offerings

Trauma-Informed Healing with Horses

These sessions blend trauma-informed approaches, somatic practices, and the intuitive connection of horses to support healing and transformation. Together, we help you explore patterns, process past experiences, and create space for new ways of being. Each session is tailored to your needs, offering both safety and depth in the healing process.

Horsemanship Coaching

These sessions focus on horsemanship skills while deepening awareness of your body, energy, and nervous system. You’ll explore how your presence and intention shape your relationship with a horse and discover how those same patterns affect your everyday interactions. Perfect for individuals, families, or groups, this work blends practical horsemanship with personal growth.

One-Day Healing with Horses Workshops

We offer a variety of half-day and full-day workshops designed as unique, themed group experiences that combine horse work with other healing practices. Each workshop carries its own focus - pairing horses with modalities such as 9D breathwork, yoga, sound healing, or other somatic practices. Because every workshop has a different theme and flow, no two are alike, meaning you can join us again and again for new and transformative experiences. You’ll also walk away with practical tools you can bring into your daily life, helping you regulate and heal your nervous system long after the workshop ends.

1–4 day individual experiences that are designed for deeper healing. These intensives combine somatic work, equine interaction, therapeutic processing, and intentional time for reflection. Each day is structured to create space for nervous system regulation and emotional release. To support the healing process, intensives may also include 9D breathwork, massage therapy, bodywork, energy work, sound healing, or other wellness practices—customized to your individual needs.

Healing Retreats with Horses

Our retreats combine equine experiences with a variety of holistic wellness practices to create deeply restorative group experiences. Retreat themes vary and may include 9D breathwork, yoga, sound healing, massage therapy, or other body-centered practices, offering something unique each season. In addition to the core retreat program, guests also have the opportunity to add on personalized services to further customize their experience. Hosted in our luxury lodge and healing spaces, these retreats invite you to connect with community while finding balance, clarity, and renewal.

Get to Know Your Guides

We’re Hannah Phillips and Tanner Phillips, a wife-and-husband team who share a deep passion for helping people heal and reconnect through the presence of horses.

At Sacred Mountain Ranch Resort, we don’t just guide sessions, we walk with you. Our hope is that every experience leaves you feeling more connected to yourself, grounded in your body, and open to the healing that comes from both horses and the natural world around us.

For Hannah, this journey began in the world of mental health. As a licensed professional counselor, she spent years walking alongside people in their stories of trauma, resilience, and growth. What she discovered along the way was that talk therapy alone isn’t always enough—healing often requires engaging the body and nervous system. That’s what drew her to somatic work and, ultimately, to the power of horses.

 

For Tanner, horses have been part of life for as long as he can remember. Through years of experience as a horseman and coach, he learned how much human energy, presence, and intention shape the way horses respond. Over time, he realized those same lessons could help people, too—teaching awareness, confidence, and authentic connection.

 

When they brought their two paths together, everything clicked. Hannah’s training in mental health, somatics and trauma processing, combined with Tanner’s expertise in horsemanship and relational coaching, created something unique—a safe, powerful, and transformative way for people to heal with horses.
