A taste of Equine Therapy for our Bachelor of Counselling ākonga
“It’s not about riding the horse. The proximity to this beautiful animal and walking beside it appears to break down barriers for people who are experiencing trauma.”
Equine therapist Deanne Lawson from Meeting Minds came into MIT recently and talked about this therapy system with a couple of her miniature horses.
Radhika says students thoroughly enjoyed the time with Deanne and of course, time with the miniature horses!
