Animal Assisted Psychotherapy Session (Equine or Canine)
About Animal Assisted Psychotherapy Session (Equine or Canine)
Animal Assisted Psychotherapy (AAP) is a therapeutic approach that incorporates animals into the treatment process to enhance emotional, psychological, and social wellbeing. This form of therapy leverages the human animal bond to facilitate therapeutic outcomes and incorporates animals into the therapeutic space to enhance emotional and psychological healing. Interaction with animals can provide comfort and facilitate deeper emotional expression.
