Animal-Assisted Therapy Investment
Pitch Deck

Why is this the right time to launch?

The market is urgently seeking alternatives to conventional therapy, especially for complex conditions like PTSD and autism. Our Clinically Integrated Healing model meets this demand by offering evidence-based, goal-oriented outcomes that traditional volunteer programs cannot match, positioning us perfectly for institutional contracts.

Current Market Drivers

• Growing institutional demand for specialized mental health services.
• Need for evidence-based therapy models beyond traditional talk therapy.
• Opportunity to secure contracts with Insurance Payers for accessibility.

What is your core advantage?

Our competitive advantage lies in combining licensed mental health professionals with certified therapy animals, delivering structured, evidence-based treatment protocols. We reduce therapeutic anxiety and lower barriers to treatment, creating a safe, supportive path to wellness that is difficult for non-clinical competitors to replicate.

Defensible Value Proposition

• Licensed therapists deliver clinical interventions, not just visitation.
• Proprietary treatment protocols ensure goal-oriented outcomes.
• Key Resources include certified animals and professional liability insurance.

How big is the revenue opportunity?

The opportunity scales directly with our clinical capacity and pricing strategy. We start 2026 with six service providers, scaling to 19 by 2030, which drives revenue. For example, in 2026, two Individual Therapy practitioners, operating at 65.0% utilization, deliver 130 treatments monthly (2 x 100 max treatments x 0.65). At $180 per treatment, that single service line generates $23,400 per month, proving the model's viability.

Capacity and Pricing Levers

• Individual Therapy price increases from $180 (2026) to $200 (2030).
• Utilization rates ramp up, reaching 85.0% for Individual Therapy by 2030.
• Institutional Therapy capacity utilization hits 90.0% by 2030.
