Equine Assisted Psychotherapy

Hawthorn Hive provides equine assisted psychotherapy on a case by case basis. Kari was first certified to do this work in 2015 and after volunteering in 2022 at Peace Ranch as a yoga instructor, Kari was reminded of the importance and beauty of EAGALA work and renewed her certification spring 2023. 

Kari grew up owning horses and has a passion for providing this experiential approach to therapy. Please email to find out more information or to schedule a free 15 minute consult to determine if this is a good fit for you or your child. 

Feeding the Horse

Why Horses?

Horses are the perfect partner.

Because horses are highly sensitive, clients can work through their life struggles by interacting with the horses without feeling judgment or interpretation by another person.

Experiential Approach

As stated on EAGALA's website equine assisted therapy uses an experiential approach that allows people of all ages to overcome challenges by being the expert in their own life.

Everyone has the innate ability to solve their own problems. The role of the Eagala team is to provide guidance that assists the client’s own process and creates lasting solutions.
