WHAT DOES AN ANIMAL ASSISTED SESSION LOOK LIKE?
A first session is typically an introductory meet ’n’ greet, finding out background to the presenting problem and a brief history, and working out first steps and which animal suits your child. Every child seems to de drawn to their own animal therapist, or the animal picks them!
Further sessions may involve play therapy, leading or grooming, paddock work or indoor work with the horses, in room work with the kittens, observational and play or art work with the chickens, or games.
Sessions may also involve cognitive behavioural work, deeper therapy and strategy development or skill building. Every therapeutic journey is unique and we work to best suit you or your child.
WHAT DO I WEAR?
Clients working with horses need to dress for the weather and wear closed toe solid shoes for paddock work. Indoor sessions simply require appropriate clothing for the environment.
