A Recommendation
I recently had the pleasure and honor of attending an open house at the Santa Ynez Valley Therapeutic Riding Program (H.E.L.P). I was quite impressed with what is happening over there and I wanted to share it with you. I will quote from their brochure:
“The HELP program involves therapists and horses in an experiential approach that has international recognition as an evidence-based treatment strategy designed for various client groups. Horses provide powerful metaphors for life challenges and act as mirrors to our behavior. The horse-human encounter provides opportunities for learning about relationships as well as internal emotional challenges.”
For referrals and inquiries contact:
Mary Ann Evans, Ph.D., HELP Program Director maebe@verizon.net or Robin Serritslev, SYVTRP Executive Director robinserritslev@verizon.net

Nobody is turned away due to lack of funds.
