Horse in a Round
12 March 2009Are you interested in Equine Assisted Mental Health or Equine Assisted Learning? Easter Seals Blake Foundation is offering an exciting new counseling program in an urban ranch setting. Working with horses in a psychotherapeutic encounter can create a non-threatening mirror where individuals can look at themselves with compassion, objectivity and understanding. By connecting and associating the horses experience to their own, it fosters getting in touch with one's own feelings, beliefs, thought patterns and behaviors moving towards the exploration and experience of making different choices. EAMH and working with horses is an encounter for change and growth, individuals integrate learning through direct experience. It promotes change through action.
