Equine Assisted Learning (EAL)

What makes horses such valuable partners in therapy?

Horses are intuitively empathetic and nurturing, offering a unique level of acceptance that creates an opportunity to be who you are and where you are in your journey without judgement. Interacting with horses provides a safe environment to face all of your emotions, those tied to grief and loss, emotional challenges, anger, depression, or stress. Horses require only that we be authentic with our feelings, which leads to a better understanding of complex emotions and creates a clear path to needed change.

I am pleased to offer Equine Assisted Learning for individuals and groups, adults and children, in partnership with trained equine specialist Laura Pallavicini at the beautiful 3P Farm in Tobaccoville. With many horses, two donkeys, several goats, and many lively chickens, the farm is a gorgeous, relaxing spot to facilitate healing.

Prior experience with horses is not necessary. All we ask is that you approach the horses with an open mind and a desire to partner with them to uncover and nurture your authentic self. Most work will be on-ground, with some riding available.
