EquiLateral: The Equine Assisted EMDR Protocol® (EA-EMDR) involves partnering with horses as sentient beings and in a manner that is supported by training, qualifications, ethical practice, and a keen awareness of client and animal welfare.
EMDR therapists trained in the model mindfully incorporate equine-assisted interactions within the eight-phased, three-pronged, standard EMDR protocol to become Equine-Assisted EMDR.

Please know that space is very limited. I run these highly personalized Equine Assisted EMDR trainings no more than 2-3 times a year and they sell out very quickly. I look forward to the opportunity to bring Equine-Assisted EMDR to your clinical practice, and to supporting your work with clients and your equine partners.
