Equine therapists are professionals who use horses as part of therapeutic practices to help individuals improve their emotional and mental well-being. This approach, often referred to as equine-assisted therapy, involves activities such as grooming, riding, and interacting with horses, which can promote trust, communication, and emotional regulation. These therapists typically work with a variety of clients, including those with autism, PTSD, or anxiety disorders. The presence of horses can create a calming environment, allowing clients to explore their feelings and develop coping strategies in a supportive setting.
