When appropriate, Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy (EFP) services are available. These activities incorporate interactions with horses as a means to achieve treatment goals. The experiences with the horses, provides the therapist with various practical techniques or tools for encouraging changes in behaviors and attitudes in clients.
