EQUINE ASSISTED ACTIVITY

Equine therapy offers a unique and effective approach to addiction recovery, capitalizing on the special bond between humans and horses. This innovative form of therapy goes beyond traditional treatment methods by engaging recovering addicts in activities with horses, which requires communication, trust, and vulnerability. These interactions help individuals develop key skills such as empathy, responsibility, and self-confidence, all of which are crucial in the journey towards sobriety. Moreover, the non-judgmental nature of horses provides a safe space for individuals to work through their emotions and challenges, fostering a deeper understanding of themselves and their behaviors related to addiction. By integrating equine therapy into addiction treatment, it presents an opportunity to heal and recover in a new and interesting way, offering hope and a fresh perspective to those seeking to overcome their addictions. Down below we have a list of all the types of equine therapy we will use in their addiction treatment.
