Welcome to Diamond LK Counseling PLLC, a facility that utilizes horses as a tool in Mental Health Counseling in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) is a form of counseling that involves the process of working with horses to impact a client's emotional experience. EAP has been successfully used in a variety of mental health settings. Sessions involving horses can help individuals navigate difficult life circumstances and find creative solutions.
Why horses? Horses increase awareness of our own thoughts, feelings, words and actions. They respond honestly to our behaviors and internal state. When a horse is incorporated into the counseling session, we are able to address maladaptive coping strategies in a new and challenging environment while creating a bond with the horse. Combining horses with counseling services typically results in positive changes, self-regulation and personal growth.
