At Hearts of Steele, we believe in the transformative power of horses to foster emotional healing and personal growth. Founded by Valerie, a passionate equine specialist, our programs aim to provide vulnerable populations with a unique opportunity to discover their own magic through the connection with these magnificent animals. Valerie’s journey with horses began early in life and continued through her personal challenges, leading her to appreciate the profound impact horses can have on social and emotional well-being.
Valerie holds certifications in Equine Facilitated Learning and has over six years of experience in therapeutic riding and coaching. As a dedicated Special Education teacher and Special Olympics coach in Brandon, Mississippi, she is committed to empowering students through inclusive practices that enhance their learning and emotional health. Her innovative approach, which includes Equine Facilitated Learning, has been recognized through grants and awards, positioning her as a leader in integrating equine therapy into educational settings.
Join us at Hearts of Steele to explore, learn, and grow in a supportive environment driven by compassion and understanding. Experience the magic of horses and embark on a journey of self-discovery with us today!
