Chrissie Diehl
ABOUT ME
I provide both office and equine-assisted therapy to children, adolescents, and young adults. My mission is to create a natural healing space and a sense of belonging for everyone. Equine-assisted therapy sessions typically take place inside a barn or outdoors in nature, with the collaboration of horses & other natural resources.
Life is full of challenges and difficulties. We want to walk alongside you by providing empathy, encouragement, and evidence-based therapeutic solutions to help support and strengthen you when you need it most. Join us on this unique journey towards healing.
MY SPECIALTIES
Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) is an experiential, holistic approach works well with solution-focused therapy (SFT) and other evidence-based treatment modalities, e.g., ACT, CBT, DBT, and EMDR
Ages 4+, Children, Adolescents, Teens, Adults
MY TREATMENT APPROACH
Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) is a different and fun way to reach children, adolescents, and young adults without the stigma of talk therapy. EAP is an alternative therapeutic approach that addresses mental health concerns and everyday life challenges by teaming up with caring therapists and horses. This type of therapy often reflects clients' verbal and nonverbal strengths and incongruencies while enhancing personal growth and development.
