Whether you are restricting or binging, food is only the symptom of a greater problem. Whether we are looking for control or comfort, it is so much more than about the food. Our eating disorder serves a purpose and we will work together to compassionately understand its role and allow space for recovery.
Why Equine Therapy in Eating Disorder Treatment?
Dani works with a diverse herd of horses and mules that range from dwarf to draft. Why is equine therapy important to her work with eating disorders?
"So many of my clients feel like they are the largest person in the room, whether that is accurate or not, so being around animals that healthy weight is a 1,000+ pounds it is a powerful corrective experience. My herd doesn't apologize for their size or try to shrink themselves which gives my clients a chance to view their bodies differently. What if we embraced our bodies and were able to shed the layers of fat phobia that have been weighing us down?"
