Finding Help
When a child shows signs of struggling with home life, school, peers, a healthy sense of self or other issues, parents are often perplexed about how to address it. Parents may ask if their child needs therapy and, if so, whom they should see and what options are available to them individually and as a family. Beacon Family Consulting is here to help.
Groups
Beacon’s empowerment groups are designed to help children with various aspects of their social interaction, from parents to peers; assist parents with the issues they face raising and interacting with children with unique needs; provide insight to school faculty through on-site consultation, and more.
Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP)?
Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) is a team approach in which a licensed mental health professional, a certified equine specialist and specially trained horses work together to co-facilitate a therapeutic process. It is experiential and action based. The relationship between the horse and individual can support individual, couple, family and/or groups’ emotional growth, learning, and healing.
