Animal Assisted Therapy – the benefit of interaction with Dogs for care for the girls at La Alianza
Animal Assisted Therapy
As part of an ongoing commitment to give the girls at La Alianza the best care and assistance to improve their lives. 5 girls undertake Dog Assisted Therapy with one to one therapy sessions accompanied by the coach, the external therapist and the psychologists from ALA.
It is proving to be a hugely beneficial therapy, fostering calm, relaxation, trust, communication and connection. With additional funding the therapy could be expanded.
