PSY-5940X: Depth in Nature: Trauma, Somatic, Mindfulness, & Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (SDP)

Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) is a cutting-edge form of treatment that uses the powerful instincts of horses to help humans recover from trauma, depression, anxiety, and other challenges. Through archetype and myth, horses have been part of the human psyche for centuries; yet, only recently have we begun to harness their wisdom for human healing. This workshop will provide students with an introduction to the history, theory and practice of EAP. Students will spend a day in nature and have an opportunity to participate in experiential learning with the horses. This hands-on workshop is designed to provide students with experiences to deepen self-awareness, improve clinical work, and learn how working with horses can quickly illuminate dynamics and give immediate opportunities for growth and change.
