Farmington,, ME 04938

Services:  Mary Batt is a licensed mental health therapist, and also a certified instructor for NARHA (North American Riding for the Handicapped Association). Her farm, Fox Run Farm, in Farmington, Maine, is the site where she has developed a program called Healing With Horses. With the help of some very gentle and well-trained horses (and one very savvy elderly pony!), she can help both adults and children deal with a variety of life's problems, including depression, anxiety, anger, fear, stress, and dealing with abuse or trauma. Riding is a possibility, but not necessarily the focus for this very gentle therapy that involves not only the mind, but also the body, and the spirit. Please call for more information.

As this is individual therapy (and is different from therapeutic riding), MaineCare and Medicare are both accepted, as is fee-for-service.
