## Equine-Assisted Therapy

Therapeutic Support Through Guided Interaction with Horses

Our Equine-Assisted Therapy offers professionally guided therapeutic sessions with horses.

The focus is on emotional processes, personal development, and inner regulation — supported by the presence and responsiveness of the horse.

This is a clearly defined therapeutic setting, distinct from our Horse–Human School and riding programs

### What Is Equine-Assisted Therapy?

Equine-Assisted Therapy is a **therapeutic approach** in which horses are integrated into the therapeutic process under professional guidance.

Horses are not used for riding instruction.
Instead, they support therapeutic work through **interaction, observation, and relationship**.

Sessions are adapted individually and may support processes such as:

- Emotional regulation and self-perception
- Working with stress, overwhelm, or inner tension
- Personal development and self-reflection
- Relationship patterns and boundaries
- Life transitions and challenging phases

### How We Work

Therapy sessions take place in a **structured and protected setting**.

- The focus is on **ground-based interaction** with the horse
- No riding instruction is part of the therapy
- The horse is a **co-regulating, responsive partner**, not a tool
- Sessions are guided, reflected, and integrated therapeutically

Each session is tailored to the individual situation, goals, and pace of the client.

### Who This Therapy Is For

Equine-Assisted Therapy may be suitable for:

- Adults and adolescents
- People experiencing emotional stress or inner imbalance
- Individuals seeking therapeutic support through experiential methods
- Clients who benefit from non-verbal, relational approaches
- Expats looking for **English-speaking therapeutic support**

No prior horse experience is required.

### Clear Boundary: Therapy vs. Horse–Human School

Equine-Assisted Therapy is a therapeutic service.

It differs clearly from our Horse–Human School, which is:

Educational and recreational

Non-therapeutic

Focused on learning with horses, including riding

If you are primarily interested in learning to ride, groundwork, or holistic equine education without therapeutic intent,

### Professional Framework

Equine-Assisted Therapy sessions are offered within a **professional therapeutic framework**.

- Sessions are goal-oriented and confidential
- Therapeutic responsibility lies with the therapist
- Horses are integrated ethically and respectfully
- Clear boundaries ensure safety for clients and horses alike

Sessions are available in **English and German**.
