Narrative

Animal-assisted psych therapy uses animals in the mental health and therapeutic treatment of people. Having an animal in the therapy gives the person a sense of comfort not equaled in traditional therapy. 

Flying High Farm currently has  dogs, cats and bunnies available. The choice of animal will depend on the person's issues, clinician's clinical input and likes. The animal can change throughout the person's therapy.
