Equine Facilitated Learning

Often referred to as EFL.

Being with horses and nature helps us at a cellular level, it helps with communication, emotional resilience, self-esteem, team playing, confidence and lots more. Theses sessions are experiential in nature and are all about what the client experiences in the here and now.

Sessions are usually in a school with a therapist and a horse. Small obstacles and task are sometimes used to enable the client to work with the horse and to challenge themselves. Whilst these are happening we reflect on our thoughts and feelings and provide different experiences where the client can store these and draw upon them when in different situations. This sessions are non-riding.
