What Is Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP)?

EAP is an interactive and immersive form of therapy. Used to support trauma patients along their healing journey, EAP has been shown to assist people dealing with depression, anxiety, dementia, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), genetic syndromes, addiction, and traumatic brain injuries.

EAP is seen by many as a method of experiencing the benefits of therapy in a less intimidating, nonclinical environment. By building confidence, developing self-efficacy, reducing anxiety, and learning to trust safely, EAP is a truly empowering form of therapy.
