What is Equine Therapy?
Equine therapy, also known as equine-assisted psychotherapy, uses horses as a tool to facilitate emotional and behavioural changes in individuals.
While horses can be intimidating, their size and power can also be a metaphor for emotional challenges. They are highly attuned to human emotions and body language, and provide immediate and unbiased feedback, mirroring a person's feelings and behaviours.
Equine-assisted therapy can be beneficial for those experiencing anxiety, ADHD, eating disorders, addiction, depression, and many other mental health conditions and can help build confidence, self-awareness, and empathy.
