Equine Assisted Therapy
Equine Assisted Therapy is a therapeutic approach that involves interactions between patients and horses to promote emotional and psychological healing. This type of therapy can help individuals with various challenges, including anxiety, depression, and trauma. The presence of horses encourages participants to develop trust, improve communication skills, and enhance self-awareness.
During sessions, trained therapists guide individuals in activities such as grooming, feeding, and riding horses. These activities foster a sense of responsibility and connection, allowing participants to experience personal growth. Equine Assisted Therapy is often used in conjunction with traditional therapeutic methods to provide a holistic approach to mental health care.
