Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy
Horses are authentic and empathic beings. They teach us about mindfulness, boundaries, relationships, and communication. Much of the work with horses is intuitive and spiritual; they are experts at holding space for emotions and supporting the movement of emotions through the body.
There is no riding that takes place for equine therapy; all work is done on the ground alongside the animals. I know how meeting a horse can be intimidating; we can go as slow as needed to build confidence and trust. All the equine facilitators are safe and gentle and we have facilitators of all sizes and personalities to meet various needs. |
