Healing
Through Horses is an Equine Assisted Mental Health Program
located in Abiquiu, New Mexico. Equine Assisted Mental Health (EAMH)
refers to utilizing the horse as a partner during a therapy
session. Horses are able to teach people with challenges that range
anywhere from addictions and victimization issue to communication,
relationship and behavioral difficulties. EAMH is focused on
establishing and building relationships by utilizing ground work
activities rather than on riding and horsemanship. It is ideal for
adolescents, children, adults and families.
Sessions are
conducted with a therapist and an equine specialist. The process is
experiential in nature which is an ideal compliment to traditional talk
therapy. Clients often explore skills and gain insight into behaviors
that are not internalized until they are practiced or experienced. The
sessions center on the present moment. The activities engage the
person’s body, mind and spirit. If you would like more
