GreeneCare Counseling provides services in person or through telehealth from a licensed provider with a focus on animal assisted therapy. I recognize that sometimes sitting in an office is effective and sometimes people are looking for experiential interventions. With this in mind, I offer some sessions at a barn in the beautiful countryside of Floyd County.
Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy—The impact of Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy is well documented. Including horses in sessions offers the opportunity to develop compassionate and authentic relationships, as well as increased self awareness, and offers a relaxed, nature based alternative to sessions held in the office. I have extensive training in Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy/Equine Assisted Mental Health Interventions and carefully select the horses that are included in sessions. The Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy approach is about relationship with another sentient being in an experiential setting, and as such we are attentive to the welfare of not only the client and clinician, but of the horse and their environment as well.
Many of my clients have not interacted with a horse before. I have trained (and continue to train) in Equine Assisted Mental Health Interventions/Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy, and have carefully selected the horses we work with, to ensure the safety and well-being of everyone in the session (both human and horse).
