Equine-assisted therapy continues to grow as an evidence-based approach supporting mental health, trauma recovery, and personal development.
However, as demand increases, so does the importance of choosing qualified providers. When evaluating programs, look for:
🏇 Look for certification (PATH Intl., COTA/L, CTRI, EAGALA, or similar)
🐴 Observe how horses are treated—calm, patient handling = good sign
💬 Ask about staff training and therapy credentials
🔍 Read reviews and testimonials
💚 You deserve a program that’s safe, compassionate, and professional
A well-run equine therapy organization prioritizes the welfare of both clients and horses. 🐎
