What is Equine Assisted Psychotherapy and Equine Assisted Learning?

Anchor Counseling is pleased to announce that we are now offering Equine Assisted Psychotherapy and Equine Assisted Learning. Equine Assisted Psychotherapy will be offered to our clients ages 12 and over, who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, mood issues and trauma history. Equine Assisted Learning will be offered for those 10 and over, who may not have mental health issues, but struggle with anger, stress, difficulty expressing emotions, or feeling stuck. Equine therapies are primarily based on the ground with the horse, rather than riding. Both programs will be offered at our Equine partner, Promise Equestrian Center, at 45w050 Beith Road in Maple Park. Equine Assisted Psychotherapy may be covered by your insurance.
