Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) utilizes horses as part of a therapy team. The other members of the team are a licensed mental health professional and an equine specialist professional. While EAP sessions are designed to address personal issues, EAL sessions focus on education, learning and skill development as defined either by a group or an individual.
Some of the areas that can be addressed with EAL are:
improving communication
improving teamwork and group cohesion
increasing productivity
resiliency training
conflict resolution
EAL sessions can be arranged for individuals and couples but are most often used by discrete groups to work on specific issues. Some groups who benefit from EAL are fire fighters, police officers, emts, and warriors. EAL is also being used by corporations for team building and conflict resolution.
Sessions can be anywhere from an hour long to half or full‐day workshops for groups.
