Meet the Insight Horses
Horses have a special nature that makes therapy with them so effective. They are non-judgmental, have no preconceived motives, and mirror the attitudes and behaviors of the humans with whom they are working. While working with these animals under the guidance of a therapist, clients have an opportunity to note their tendency to engage in self-defeating thoughts and actions. These realizations provide excellent bases for discussion and processing. Insight Equine has six incredible hooved friends we would like you to meet:
