What is the H3 Model?

The H3 Pyramid Model is a researched-based approach to human development that merges horsemanship principles and human development principles together. It focuses on forging an internalization of principles and generalization of those principles into research-based skills that build resilience. The H3 Model is a bi-directional relationship between humans and horses that helps the human to see themselves in a new way. The benefits of alternative therapy through the H3 Pyramid Model includes increased self-awareness, improved communication, and a better understanding of relationships with other people and animals.

What Makes the H3 Model Unique?

The H3 Model is unique in that it merges researched-based principles of human development with horsemanship principles to create a therapeutic relationship and therapeutic interventions that go beyond typical talk therapy. The H3 Model focuses on helping the individual to internalize principles of recovery and generalize these principles into research-based skills that build resilience.

 

The bi-directional relationship between human-horse in the H3 Model allows clients to gain insight into themselves in a new way. The mental health professional and equine specialist work together to ensure the client's emotional safety and provide relevant treatment applications.

 

The H3 Model can benefit someone on the road to recovery in a variety of ways. It can help them to build trust and confidence, increase self-awareness and self-esteem, improve communication and problem solving skills, and develop new coping strategies. Additionally, it can provide a non-threatening environment to practice new behaviors and to create a positive relationship with the horse.

Implementing the H3 Model at Our Ranch in Berwick, Maine

At Maine Recovery Ranch, the H3 Pyramid Model is implemented into therapy by focusing on the organizing principles of natural horsemanship, human development, interpersonal neurobiology, and evidenced based treatment. This helps to create a relationship foundation between human and horse, which is then used to build the horse's capacity to manage pressure by facing it. The tangible sense of unity between human and horse is also promoted through the internalization of the foundational principles that takes place within the human-horse relationship. Through experiential treatment, activities such as riding, grooming, and leading the horse are used to help clients feel a sense of connection with the horse, while also providing opportunities for self-reflection, emotional expression, and increased resiliency.
