Equine Therapy Treatment Centres
Equine-assisted therapy in Ontario can be used to treat depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and addiction. Therapy with horses helps people to achieve emotional growth and learning. At a residential equine therapy treatment centre Ontario programs are a collaborative effort between a licensed clinical therapist and a certified equine-assisted therapy counsellor.

Ontario Equine-assisted therapy for addiction is an effective form of non-traditional addiction treatment. Horses are incredibly intuitive and allow individuals to let their guard down and reduce stress. Reactions to the animal and the animal's reaction to them helps to highlight the behaviors, feelings, and relationships that have caused pain and fed an addiction.

Equine Assisted Therapy is also a unique and effective method for assisting in the treatment of eating disorders. While generally used in the beginning or aftercare stage of treatment, those who have eating disorders can build their self-confidence, talk about the underlying causes of their disorder and begin learning the power of changing behaviors. A good equine-assisted therapy program for eating disorders in Ontario can help address the emotional issues that need to be addressed in eating disorder treatment.
