Have you ever thought of a horse being your co-therapist? Possibly you have "horsed" around with the idea, but you aren't quite sure exactly how to get into equine assisted psychotherapy.
You might be thinking I don't even have a horse!
I have known Marla for about a decade now, and I first met her through Tomorrow's Rainbow.
Tomorrow's Rainbow is an amazing healing place for children and teens who are grieving. It is farm. A farm with horses, ponies, other creatures, a fire pit and so much more.
It is one of the most incredible places here in South Florida. There is nothing like it! I recommend it to clients all the time.
Marla rocks the whole work/life balance thing. Her office is a farm. She rides in the morning, hangs out with horses all day and takes respite under a huge tree where she conducts some of her groups.
She works and plays, and plays and works, as if they are the same. The best part is that her co-therapist is a four-legged horse.
You are probably wondering some things about equine assisted psychotherapy.
Join us as we answer your questions on this podcast as Marla shares her three tips into the world of equine assisted psychotherapy. - How are horses used therapeutically?
- I don't have a horse, how can I involve a client with EAP (Equine Assisted Psychotherapy)?
- Who is best served through EAP/EAL (Equine Assisted Learning)?
