The simple and often instant bond between a human and an animal is the cornerstone of Animal-Assisted Therapy. It is a practice that incorporates using animals as part of the therapeutic process. It is about building a bond with an animal through interaction and play. Animals are used because they can help people relax, minimize stress and offer a sense of safety. Animals can also help reach kids, youth and adults who have disengaged and don’t want to work with a therapist.
Our Animal Social Group can assist with a multitude of goals such as: Improving self-esteem and reducing anxiety; Developing Social Skills, Better Social Interaction and reducing feeling of Social Isolation.
