FROM THE INSIDE OUT PROGRAMME

‘From the Inside Out’ is a research based EAP redevelopment and recovery curriculum for Trauma Survivors. It was developed to support recovery through the honest reflections of horses; horses don’t lie. Because horses are animals of prey, they have established acute skills that enable them to thrive in a volatile environment. Horses are the perfect teachers and partners for children who have experienced physical and or psychological trauma. ‘From the Inside Out’ is a process based mental health programme.
