Join us in Washington state to learn more about integrating your life skills, experience, and education for a successful and fulfilling Equine Facilitated Learning practice.

Our intention is to assist facilitators in leaning to discern the differences between Equine Facilitated Learning, Equine Assisted Coaching, and Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy; how these types of facilitation overlap; when discernment is necessary; how to combine some of the practices and principles unique to each; and how to assess your specific skill set and gifts to identify your individual practice. The latest research on the brain and the limbic system will be presented and discussed, as well as how these systems support the efficacy of our work with the horses.
 

Drea Bowen

Kathleen and Drea will present the latest information on Equine Facilitated Learning; discuss how EFL can support and enhance your practice; and explore the viability of work with horses for depression, anxiety, PTSD and other mental health issues.

 

Kathleen has just returned from a successful trip to the United Kingdom where she worked with members of the military from the British Combat Stress organization.  A 2 day pilot program (through the IFEAL organization) was presented to 4 soldiers who experience PTSD; work with the horses proved beyond expectations the viability of EFL with individuals under the care of mental health professionals.
