Hawaii Island Recovery is excited to now offer Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) to our clients. EAP has been shown to be an effective tool in the treatment of addiction and HIR has the distinction of being the first substance abuse treatment program to offer this service in Hawaii.
The benefits of EAP to individuals in recovery has been well established. EAP helps clients access their emotions and manage difficult feelings, improve verbal and non-verbal communication and heighten self-awareness while also expanding the capacity for lateral thinking, problem solving and team work. Hawaii Island Recovery believes our Equine Assisted Psychotherapy program in conjunction with our other treatment modalities, will equip our clients with the skills, insights and behavioral changes necessary to support their successful long-term recovery from addiction.
