Ep.6 Equine Therapy - Horses Helping Humans

After a week when Sue survived a bloody (the blood was on her!) wrestling match and Kelli returned without serious injury from horse (no drinking while riding) camp, we gathered on our audio front porch to welcome neighbor Robbin Nolen to talk about equine assisted therapy. Robbin is a certified EAGALA Equine Specialist and runs Discovery Stable here on the Bend. She and her 11 horses provide equine therapy to a broad range of clients: youth with autism, sex trafficking victims, trauma survivors, and others with mental health challenges. They talk about the therapy process itself, its effects on both the clients and the horses, and how people can find out how to avail themselves of equine assisted therapy. And ... Sue makes a mistake. But she owns up. More at FrontPorchAF.com.
