Animal Assisted Programs for Addiction
Animal Assisted Therapy
In animal assisted therapy, our psychologists work along with trained therapy dogs to speed up the recovery process and to help patients learn or improve various skills(social, verbal, physical, cognitive). We also use Animal assisted Therapy to help clients deal with emotional/behavioral problems.
How does Animal-assisted Therapy complement traditional forms of therapy?

Animal assisted therapy enables us to bring the unconditional love of an animal into a therapy setting. Animals provide that extra something that a human therapist cannot always give during therapy. Having a friendly pet in the room allows the client to relax, which helps build rapport and trust with the therapist. For example, a therapy dog’s presence serves as an effective ice-breaker with withdrawn and uncooperative clients who see the therapist as more friendly if there is a therapy pet present in the room.
