How We Incorporate Equine Therapy in Our Treatment Plans
Here’s how equine therapy for adults works with various types of recovery treatment:
Emotional Trauma
Equine therapy offers a calming presence, providing the support needed to help ease the emotional strain caused by trauma. The non-verbal connection with horses allows for a gentler way to process difficult emotions.
Drug Addiction
Equine therapy for addiction encourages people to gain self-awareness and develop emotional control. The bond formed with the horse encourages accountability and promotes growth throughout recovery.
Alcohol Addiction
Working with horses during alcohol addiction recovery helps build trust and emotional stability. This reinforces healthy habits and reduces the urge to turn to alcohol as a coping mechanism.
Dual Diagnosis
Equine therapy helps ease the emotional burden of managing both addiction and mental health issues. Offering a non-verbal connection with horses supports personal growth and emotional balance during recovery.
Mental Health
For those struggling with anxiety, depression, or PTSD, equine therapy offers a powerful way to connect with emotions in a non-judgmental setting. You’ll develop better emotional regulation skills, strengthening your ability to manage mental health challenges.
Eating Disorders
In equine therapy, participants learn trust, care, and compassion through their relationship with the horse. This experience promotes healthier thoughts about body image and food, creating a more positive mindset during recovery.
Sex Addiction & Intimacy Issues
Equine therapy helps rebuild emotional connections and trust, crucial for those dealing with sex addiction or intimacy challenges. The interactions with the horse provide a safe space to address deep-seated emotional patterns.
