Equine Therapy Services
Equine therapy builds skills in multiple areas depending on the person. Working with a horse often helps us see the challenges we face because of a horse’s ability to mirror our own struggles and emotions. Our therapists in Haysville, KS guide individuals through the mirroring process with horses while also reorienting the ability to communicate effectively. The natural responsiveness of horses to confident and positive communication styles allows us to help people enhance and recover this type of verbal skill set.
Other core abilities which equine therapy often cultivates include problem solving, work ethic, personal responsibility, teamwork, confidence, attitude, emotional growth, relationship building and more.
