Healing Trauma with Horses

Frequently Asked Questions - therapy

Please reach us at contact@stablearena.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

  

Insurance companies do not cover animal assisted therapies.  This means that our services are offered on a private pay basis.  


  

No horse experience required! We will ask you about your experience and comfort level only as a way to help guide use of the most beneficial exercises and application of EMDR.


While equine therapy can benefit individuals with autism, our program specifically specializes in trauma treatment using equine assisted EMDR. Our expertise and training are focused on trauma recovery rather than autism support.


  

The EMDR practice and inclusion of all eight phases is the same. The difference is that it is applied in an active and experiential setting with horses, therapist and an equine specialist as partners in the process.


  • If you have felt “stuck” in your progress
  • If you enjoy being outdoors and in a natural environment 
  • If you prefer experiential and active engagement 
  • If you can't quite figure out what is holding you back


Riding is not a part of Arena EMDR.  Observation and a variety of ground exercises are used 


There will always be an equine specialist and a licensed therapist present. There are several different horses that may be used. Exercises and interactions with the horses are incorporated into all phases of EMDR.

Military and First Responder Peer Support Teams


Terri and Laura will be the primary facilitators.  Certified equine specialists may also be on site to assist, depending on the size and needs of your team.


No, typically there is no riding in equine assisted team building. All work with horses is done on the ground. Working with horses on the ground enables participants to form a more authentic relationship with the horse without the interference of bridles and saddles.


Teams can develop and improve:

  • Communication skills (both verbal and non-verbal)
  • Leadership abilities
  • Self-awareness
  • Emotional intelligence
  • Teamwork and collaboration
  • Problem-solving and decision-making
  • Resilience
