Horse-Assisted Therapy

Horse-Assisted Therapy (HAT) involves interacting with horses under the guidance of a trained therapist to support emotional, behavioral, and mental health. Horses are sensitive and intuitive animals that respond to human emotions, providing immediate feedback and opportunities for clients to develop self-awareness, communication, and trust. This form of therapy often helps individuals with issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and behavioral challenges by fostering personal growth in a supportive, experiential setting. The goal is to facilitate insight and coping skills through the horses' natural responses and the therapeutic activities structured around their interactions.
