Almagre offers individual Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy sessions, an innovative approach that uses interaction with horses in nature as a facilitator in the psychotherapeutic process. These sessions are designed for addressing anxiety disorders, burnout, personal development, and eating disorders.

 

Therapeutic Framework

 

The sessions are conducted by a specialized clinical psychologist, in collaboration with an equine specialist and horses trained for psychotherapeutic interventions. 

This methodology provides a safe and structured space for:

 

• Emotional regulation: Support in managing emotions.

 

• Personal development: Exploration of emotional and behavioral patterns, strengthening self-esteem, and acquiring interpersonal skills.

 

• Promotion of adaptive coping strategies tailored to individual needs.

 

Clinical Indications

 

These sessions are recommended for:

 

• Anxiety disorders: Managing symptoms associated with generalized anxiety, panic attacks, or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

 

• Burnout: Restoring emotional balance and promoting resilience in contexts of occupational or personal stress.

 

• Eating disorders: Psychotherapeutic support for conditions such as anorexia, bulimia, or binge eating disorder, addressing emotional and behavioral aspects related to body image, control, and self-perception.

 

• Adaptation difficulties: Support during periods of transition, such as changes in personal, professional, or family life.

 

• Personal development: Developing self-confidence, self-reflection, and relational skills.

 

The Therapeutic Role of Horses

 

Horses, due to their high emotional sensitivity and ability to respond to the participant’s internal states, act as therapeutic mediators. This interaction provides:

 

• Reflection on emotional and behavioral patterns.

 

• Promotion of emotional self-regulation and the development of new adaptive strategies.

 

Evidence-Based Methodology

 

The sessions integrate principles of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness, adapted to the specificities of Equine-Assisted Interventions (EAI).
