As therapist, counselors and interns/students, you will explore how EAP will help your clients raise their awareness of unhealthy communication skills, work through anger issues, conflict resolution, responsibility, and self-esteem strategies, in an intense and effective setting. Continued hands-on participation in EAP activities.
Day 3 - April 30, 2011 (9:00am to 5:00pm):
Therapy Using Horses Continues Through Role Play/Exam/Completion
Our goal/objective at Pegasus Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) is based on the experiential therapeutic treatment approach designed to manifest the ABC's of life for individuals and groups alike. The ABC's are two vital components, behaviors and communication, brought together by the first step in change, awareness. Change is constant; it is inevitable, yet it needs awareness to be productive. The Awareness of Behaviors and Communication (ABC's) is imperative for growth and development as a Human Being.

Objective
This workshop teaches the fundamentals of Equine Assisted Psychotherapy, which gives Clinical Professionals and students the opportunity to observe, explore and experience vital new skills. These skills enhance the treatment process on an intense, in-depth, yet short-term basis. EAP is an experiential therapeutic treatment approach designed to manifest the ABC's of life for individuals and groups alike. The ABC's are two vital components, behaviors and communication, brought together by the first step in change, awareness. Change is constant; it is inevitable, yet it needs awareness to be productive. The Awareness of Behaviors and Communication (ABC's) is Imperative for growth and development as a Human Being. For many people, this healthy normal process can be hindered, and even sabotaged, on an unconscious level. Meaning they may react to people, places, things, and situations because of the perceived lack of options; rather than a healthy response. Options and choices are abundant; however, difficult to visualize because individuals usually focus on what they cannot do, rather than what they can do. With EAP, Clinical Professionals will have the opportunity to explore, on a deeper level, the behaviors and patterns that have created problems in their client's lives.
