Unbridled Paths is a Christian non-profit organization on mission to build unbridled relationships between horses and humans that will impact and improve their lives physically, emotionally, and mentally.

We believe that we are all fearfully and wonderfully made and want to share the healing power of horses with the special needs community in Palm Beach County.

Unbridled Paths accomplishes this by providing equine-assisted therapeutic riding, equine-assisted therapy and therapeutic activities to children and adults with special needs. Additionally, we want to serve and support the families of the individuals we serve. We provide sibling and parent/caregiver programs, activities, educational classes and  biblically based small groups to support and encourage the whole family. These services are optional and of no additional charge to the families. We understand that it is not just the child or individual with special needs that needs support but the entire family.

Meet the Founder

Unbridled Paths was founded by Nicole Messer, a PATH Certified Therapeutic Riding Instructor who’s love for horses and compassion for the special needs community challenged her to create a safe, peaceful, family friendly, farm environment that serves not only the participants but their siblings, parents and caregivers.

For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. Psalm 139: 13-16
