Equine-Assisted psychotherapy (eap)

In collaboration with Shepard Meadows Therapeutic Riding Center, Porter's House will be offering Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy for those engaged in our Outpatient Therapy Program!

EAP is the combined use of horses, a licensed therapist, and an equine specialist to support clients in making progress towards individual treatment goals. The client's relationship with the horse can be utilized as a tool to mirror real-life experiences and to explore patterns in their own relationships in an effort to facilitate change. 

Medicaid (Husky) or self-pay is accepted. 

*All EAP sessions will take place at Shepard Meadows Therapeutic Riding Center, located in Bristol, CT.
