EQUILORE
Equilore provides Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy (EFP) to children (7 onwards), young people and adults who are faced with mental health challenges. In our sessions clients work with the horses from the ground. EFP is particularly helpful when talking therapy has failed because of the psychology and non verbal nature of horses. Equilore is based in Launton, Oxfordshire.
