THERAPY HORSES

Equine assisted psychotherapy is a program facilitated by a licensed mental health professional, a horse professional and experienced volunteers

These activities are performed on the ground (rather than riding), and include grooming, feeding, haltering and leading the horse. During the process of working with the horse, the therapist and client engage in talk therapy, processing feelings, behaviors and patterns. Building a relationship with a horse causes the human to feel powerful through the concept of love. Perfect love makes fear go away!
