What is Equine Assisted Therapy?
What is trauma and how can horses help me?
Equine therapy, also known as equine-assisted activitie, harnesses the profound connection between humans and horses to promote emotional healing and personal growth.
Horses, with their gentle and intuitive nature, provide a non-judgmental presence that helps trauma survivors feel safe and understood. Through guided interactions with these magnificent animals, individuals can develop trust, build self-esteem, and learn healthy coping mechanisms.
The process of caring for and communicating with horses encourages mindfulness, reduces anxiety, and fosters a sense of empowerment. Equine therapy offers a unique, experiential pathway to recovery, helping trauma survivors reconnect with their emotions and build resilience for a healthier future.
Trauma often affects us in ways we do not even realize.
Common trauma symptoms include:
Flashbacks, nightmares, intrusive thoughts or memories
Physical or emotional reactions to reminders of the trauma
Efforts to avoid reminders of the trauma, such as people, places, or activities
Being constantly on edge
Not able to have healthy relationships with people
Irritability and angry outbursts
Difficulty concentrating or sleeping
Feeling constantly anxious or jittery
Chronic pain
Fatigue
