Equine Assisted Psychotherapy involves experiential learning from activities done with a horse or horses. The activities, how you approach the tasks, and what surfaces for you in the process become a metaphor for other areas of your life. The learning is in the here and now, therefore experiential learning is lasting. The experiences with the horses can be used to:
- Discover new things about yourself
- Increase trust in yourself and others
- Develop new strategies
- Enhance emotional flexibility
- Understand relationships in your life
- Increase self esteem
- Enhance team building
Specially trained certified Equine Assisted Psychotherapy professionals take you through a process with the horses and facilitate the lessons you are learning.
