Through learning to communicate with the ponies, families learn strategies that improve communication and family cohesion. This helps families to work through issues together in a calmer and more collaborative way.
"The course helped us to identify that certain behaviours were contributing to our situation and gave us different strategies to use which have empowered us all to feel more in control. Through the help, support, and love of the staff at Think Like a Pony, we have a better understanding of our actions, how they impact on other family members, and how to avoid falling into these patterns again." - Jaynee, parent.
A Unique and Successful Approach to Family Work
Through learning to communicate with the ponies, families learn strategies that improve communication and family cohesion. This helps families to work through issues together in a calmer and more collaborative way.
We have seen that parents who attend the courses are able to support their children to improve mental and emotional wellbeing in the home environment and wider life.
Parent and Carer Groups or Family Sessions
We tailor sessions to meet individual needs so that we can best support the family. We run group sessions or can work with a family on an individual basis.
