Our vision is to grow resilient individuals through therapy.
Formerly Stony Lake Therapeutic Riding Center…
In 2014, we began a small, seasonal therapeutic riding center at Stony Lake Stables with just two clients. We’ve since stepped up to serve through Recreational Therapy with equines as our main modality, became our own 501c3 Nonprofit in 2018, and have been running full-time, year-round since July of 2020! In 2023, we are serving over 150 individuals and have changed our name to Thriving Tides Therapy to allow for more growth in the future!
