How Can Arabian Horses Help Mental Health Patients?

Lynda Kaufmann, Director of Government and Public Affairs, joins our host Kristin Walker at the The 18th Annual Behavioral Health Informatics Conference and Exposition held by CiBHS.org to discuss Psynergy Programs, Inc and their unique approach to mental healthcare.Psynergy Programs operates with the shared belief that recovery happens, especially when a cohesive set of supports and services are available to support and sustain it. Based in Morgan Hill, California, the organization has grown from one facility to three over the last four years, with a fourth now in development. Each campus offers clinical and residential services in a safe and supported residential area. This way, we can emphasize the best elements of a community-living experience for individuals facing a variety of mental health challenges. Their use of Arabian horses to work with mental health patients is groundbreaking work.
