Holistic trauma recovery therapies

At Manhattan G.O.A.T. Farm, we offer experiential healing through plant, animal, and art therapies. Whether you are supplementing traditional talk therapy or looking for a grounded, hands-on path forward, our sessions are tailored to support your personal growth and nervous system regulation.

Our therapeutic pathways

Each therapy program is designed to build emotional resilience, self-worth, and functional skills. We bill insurance directly, and participants never receive an out-of-pocket balance bill if insurance does not fully cover services.

Art therapy

Transform recycled materials into meaningful crafts and fordite jewelry. Express yourself creatively while building vocational confidence and focus.

Grounded healing on your own terms

All therapeutic sessions run for one hour and can be taken individually or in supportive small groups. Clients typically begin with weekly sessions, but the length of your program is entirely up to you. You decide when you feel ready to graduate.

Tailored individual and group care

Our animals are thoughtfully paired with participants who share natural connections. During sessions, you will participate in daily farm care routines, gentle grooming, and direct communication with animals like our goats and donkeys. These nurturing interactions help rebuild confidence, establish healthy boundaries, and reduce symptoms of trauma in a compassionate, pressure-free setting.
