Equine Assisted Therapy

 We have teamed up with a couple therapists to offer equine assisted therapy! We are offering both equine assisted psychotherapy and hippotherapy. 

Equine assisted psychotherapy "integrates horses into the therapeutic process to help individuals tackle a variety of mental health challenges, including addition, PTSD, depression, behavioral disorders, domestic abuse, and trauma." (Definition taken from the EAGALA website). McCord Training along with a licensed therapist will be providing structured activities with horses focusing on the client's mental health. 

The hippotherapy program is done in partnership with LEAF Pediatrics in the summer. They bring out their clients along with their PTs and OTs to conduct sessions. They use the horses as tools in their sessions, and the participants get to groom and ride. Reach out to LEAF to get signed up for their hippotherapy program.
