Equine Therapy Programs for Troubled Girls From The State of Desert Aire, WA 

Equine Therapy Programs for Troubled Girls Desert Aire Washington WA 

For centuries, there have been long-held beliefs that equine-assisted therapy renders physical and some psychotherapeutic benefits for those who engage in experiential treatment. Today, equine-assisted therapy has grown to include the treatment of troubled teens (from Desert Aire, WA and elsewhere). What's more, specialized treatment facilities known as equine therapy programs are becoming increasingly popular as scientific studies have begun to add to their veracity. 


Studies Prove Equine Therapy is Effective 

The first scientific studies that focus on the mental health applications of equine-assisted therapy (including therapy involving teens from Desert Aire, WA) are just now beginning to take hold. While analysis into equine therapy as it pertains to mental health treatment is still in its infancy, the research has thus far yielded remarkable results.

Psychiatric studies such as 2011's "Examining the Literature on the Efficacy of Equine Assisted Treatment for People with Psychological and Behavioural Disorders," and Hartpury University's Postgraduate Research project, are two separate, independent studies that came to the same conclusion: EAT is provenly effective in treating underlying psychiatric issues in teenagers and young adults. 

Equine Therapy for Troubled Girls from Desert Aire, WA  Vs. Other Animal-Assisted Therapies

While other avenues of animal-assisted therapy can be somewhat effective in treating mental health-related issues, equine therapy is by far the most scientifically proven to yield results. According to anxiety, depression, and trauma expert, Dr. Robin Zasio, "horses bring unique components to the therapy process for troubled teenage girls (including those from the state of  Desert Aire, WA).

Those mentioned above are just two of dozens of the most recent explorations into the subject. Similar to these most prominent scientific analyses, the studies that have been completed thus far, have proven to be conclusive and overwhelmingly positive. 

Equine Therapy and Programs are On the Rise

With a few decades worth of scientifically proven effectiveness in treating troubled teens (including teenage girls from Desert Aire, WA), EAT has naturally integrated into the industry of troubled teens, namely, residential treatment. Equine-assisted therapy has become so popular, in fact, that programs that label themselves as "Equine Therapy Programs" are beginning to take the whole industry by storm. 

Equine-Assisted Interventions' Therapeutic Impact on Teenage Girls from Desert Aire, WA 

While Equine-Assisted Therapy in Desert Aire, WA is equally effective in healing any demographic, it is particularly efficient for teenage girls. Particularly, animal-assisted intervention therapies are clinically proven to promote teens' emotional, mental, and social states of well-being.

2 Corinthians 4:4 “in whose case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that they might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.”

A joint study from 2004 titled, 'Can Creatures Aid and Assist Humans in Recovery? Animal-Assisted Therapies in At-Risk Teenage Mental Health' proposes that AAT, namely, equines helps develop the following (in teenage girls from Desert Aire, WA): 

  • Generalized anxiety and depressive disorders
  • Correspondence between patient and therapist
  • Understanding and recognition in treatment
  • Persistent social conducts

The interconnected study found initial evidence that animal-assisted therapy (horses in particular) for adolescents" (including teens from Desert Aire, WA) catalyze learning, consolation sources, and outlets for nurturance."

Similar studies have shown that animal-assisted therapy can also help treat teens who have struggled with socializing. 

Mark 11:24 “Therefore I say to you, all things for which you pray and ask, believe that you have received them, and they will be granted you.”

It is typical for mental health-related occurrences, such as depression or stress, to negatively affect the part of a teen's brain that enables them to interact with others constructively. But interestingly, this portion of the brain is unchanged when it comes to interacting with animals.

Consequently, when clinically anti-social teens are introduced to an animal during therapy sessions, they are more easily able to access that otherwise shut-off part of their brain - allowing them to experience traditional therapy with a psychiatric professional successfully.
