Equine-Facilitated Therapy

Horses are amazing at picking up on how we feel. Spending time with them can help us feel more relaxed, build confidence, and connect with our emotions.

Whether you’re feeling stressed, anxious, or just need a space to think, horses can help. They don’t judge and they respond honestly to how we are feeling.

Anyone can benefit from this special connection. It can help you understand yourself better, feel more confident, and improve your wellbeing.

Equine Facilitated Therapies and Equine Facilitated Healing

What are Equine Facilitated Therapies (EFT)?

Equine Facilitated Therapies (EFT) are different types of support where people spend time with horses to help with their emotions, confidence, and wellbeing. Horses are calm, sensitive animals that can help us feel safe and understood.

EFT can help people:

  • Understand their feelings

  • Feel calmer and more confident

  • Communicate better with others

  • Solve problems in new ways

    These therapies are suitable for people of all ages and needs. You don’t need to have any horse experience to take part.


    What is Equine Facilitated Healing (EFH)?

    Equine Facilitated Healing (EFH) is a gentle, holistic way to improve how you feel inside—emotionally, mentally, and even spiritually. You don’t ride the horses during EFH. Instead, you take part in activities with them on the ground.

    Horses are very good at picking up on our feelings. When you work with them, they help you understand your emotions and give you honest, non-verbal feedback. This can help you:

    • Feel more calm

    • Learn to trust again

    • Be more aware of how you’re feeling

    • Let go of emotional pain

    EFH sessions are guided by trained facilitators who help you make sense of the experience. It’s a peaceful, supportive process that can lead to real changes in how you feel and how you see yourself.

    Whether you’re going through a tough time or simply want to feel more balanced and connected, EFH can help.
