Equine Assisted Clinical Counselling (EACC)

Welcome EACC at PRDA! A unique program that combines the power of psychotherapy and equine assisted therapy to help individuals overcome a wide range of emotional and behavioral challenges. Our program is designed to provide a holistic approach to healing, incorporating the latest in both traditional and alternative therapeutic techniques.

At the core of our program is the belief that healing takes place when individuals connect with themselves, others, and the natural world. Our team of experienced therapists and certified equine specialists will guide you on a journey of self-discovery, helping you to overcome obstacles, build resilience, and gain a greater sense of well-being.

Whether you are looking to improve your mental health, build stronger relationships, or achieve personal growth, our program is here to support you. We invite you to explore our website, learn more about PRDA services, and get in touch with us to discuss how we can help you achieve your therapeutic goals.
