Healing lives through the heart and strength of the horse.
It has been called experiential, horse/human interaction, and non-verbal communication. It also has many titles, such as Equine-Assisted Learning and Equine-Assisted Therapy. Regardless of what it is called, it is communication between a horse and a human that brings about change in the human.
We know horses have an amazing ability to reach deep inside a human and touch on parts of their life that need attention. Equine Assisted Therapy can help with grief, PTSD, self-confidence, anxiety, and more.
Healing Strides has created a special five-week program to help those trying to cope with grief by working through the five stages of grief (denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance).
