Kassi TalbotOccupational TherapistHey y'all! My name is Kassi, and I've been happily married to my husband, Jefferson, for 15 years. We have two beautiful children, Eevi and Liv. I have been an occupational therapist now for 11 years and have had the privilege of serving patient's of all ages from all walks of life. I have seen first hand, through my own personal experience, the healing that takes place between a human and a horse. My ability to overcome adversity through my faith, the unconditional love and support of my grandparents, and a spirited fox trotter named Little Mamma sparked my desire to combine my love for horses with my career as an OT. The opportunity to be part of a program that promotes healing and functional independence in the equine environment is a dream come true!

StellaStella may be only 32”, but she has a big personality! She thrives on attention and allows children and small adults to sit in her. Stella is extremely patient, loves to have her hair braided, and allows children to turn her into a living canvas for “paint the pony” day.
