Our Mission

The Mission of Kathryn Jean Gress and the animals at The Gress Mountain Ranch is to increase the quality of life for individuals during their stay in healthcare facilities and/or outpatient psychotherapy treatment.
The focus is on the whole person; their physical, cognitive, emotional, and spiritual well being. The animals serve to motivate individuals in their therapy and bridge communication gaps with medical staff.

Mission Statement

Counseling In The Country is a multi-disciplinary approach to health maintenance and illness prevention, utilizing a broad spectrum of experience and natural remedies.  The primary objective of the holistic approach is to assist in meeting the health care needs of each individual and family.  The unison of mind, body, and spirit, achieved through natural therapies, is recognized to complement, support, and enhance other forms of health care.

Kathryn worked as an Animal Assisted Therapist since 1996. The Gress Mountain Ranch & Sanctuary was established in 2002.
