hildren and teens. What is Equine Psychological Therapy or Equine Assisted Therapy? Equine Psychological Therapy is relatively new to Australia despite the success of Equine Psychotherapy programs overseas. It is not therapy on horses but with horses! Equine Psychological Therapy has proven helpful in helping interested in personal growth and in treating a broad range of issues including:

Equine assisted Psychological therapy including:

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
Psycho-education
Behavioural modification
Thought modification
Social and general Skills training
Interpersonal therapy
Relationship Therapy
Problem solving skills enhancement
Educational and learning skills enhancement
Relaxation and anxiety management training
Parenting skills training
Self esteem enhancement work

Why use Equine Psychological Therapy? To reach a true capacity for connectedness with one self, other people and other beings — in particular horses— it is essential to develop an awareness of one’s emotions and intellectual and physiological experiences while in contact. The experiential nature of learning while doing takes what occurs in standard clinical sessions one step beyond. It allows for the development and exploration of the awareness that underlies true connection and authenticity.

IS EQUINE ASSISTED THERAPY OR ANIMAL ASSISTED THERAPY SUITABLE FOR MY CHILD?

If your child likes animals and is not at risk or aggression toward our animal therapists, yes they may suit this work.

We do however prioritise the health and welling of our non-human therapists, so if a child has a history of harming animals or of aggression toward them, we sadly cannot accept a referral.

Similarly, the care of our clients is important to us, and if a child may abscond, or if a child has a condition involving psychotic episodes, we cannot keep them safe on such a large property so we usually refer them on to a room based therapist and can not accept them as a client.

If you're not sure whether Animal Assisted or Equine Assisted is the best option for your child, give us a call on 0421 978 808 or email [email protected] and we can have a chat.

Term 3 Theme: Community

This week we’re adding to our Coventry community by hiding our painted rocks around the property for clients to find and re-hide.

This term we’ve been talking about all the different communities that we each belong to and how both visible and invisible actions help to make communities feel welcoming, comfortable and give its members a sense of belonging.

These rocks look great and we’ll have so much fun trying to hide them in ways that they can be found… but not too easily!

**If this sounds like the type of thing your child might enjoy contact Coventry Psychology to snap up one of the remaining spots in our Art Group.

WHAT IS EQUINE ASSISTED THERAPY?
Equine Assisted Therapy is a therapeutic approach that involves working with horses to support emotional, psychological, and personal development.

Guided by a qualified therapist, activities with horses can help improve confidence, emotional regulation, communication skills, self-awareness, and mental wellbeing.

No horse-riding experience is required, and sessions are tailored to the individual’s goals and needs.

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.
