A word from our founder:

​

Whenever I was struggling as a teen, there was usually one place you could find me: the barn. Whether I was trying to sort through my thoughts or quiet them, something about being there usually helped me find whatever it was I needed in the moment.

​

Fast forward. I had completed two bachelor's degrees and two master's degrees, finished my counseling internships, obtained my state counseling license and national level endorsement, and achieved everything I had worked so many years for. And yet... I still found myself at the barn. With all my success, I still hadn't found peace; in fact, I had far less of it. 

​

Stroking a horse as they munched their hay in the sunshine, I'd often think to myself, "I wish I could just stay right here and forget the outside world."

​

"What if..."

​

What if I could not only create the space I needed for myself, but also share it with others?

​

What if, instead of someone telling us what we should do, we found it for ourselves?

​

That's where the idea of Cedarbrae Inc. was born.

​

A place to find what you need, at the barn.

Peace.

Quiet. 

A judgement-free space.

A listening ear.

Or a soft muzzle.

Emotional regulation.

Self-confidence.

Empowerment.

Rest.

Respite. In the rural.
