Animal-Assisted Therapy (AAT)
AAT covers psychotherapy, therapy, and counselling sessions with the presence of animals to boost the effect of the sessions. The trained therapy animals provide non-judgmental support, allowing individuals to express their emotions, pent-up thoughts, and find solace in challenging times. Whether it's helping those with PTSD, autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, anxiety, or other mental health conditions, AAT offers a holistic approach that combines the benefits of animal companionship with a therapy framework to help clients achieve greater mental well-being.
