It is facilitated by a qualified/licensed mental health professional, a certified equine specialist, and a team of intuitive equine partners (horses) in a private, safe, and non-threatening environment. This therapy helps our youth and veteran clients learn about themselves and their relationships with others by participating in activities with the horses. Horses are used for growth, learning, and healing. We help our clients improve their self-esteem, build confidence, work on their social communication skills, better their relationships, and gain better social awareness through these experiential activities. Equine-assisted learning (eal) is an experiential approach to promoting life skills development for educational, professional, and personal goals through equine-assisted activities. It moves beyond intellectual awareness and allows clients to participate tangibly in how their behaviors, attitudes, and beliefs impact themselves and others.
