She heard of an emerging therapy called"equine assisted psychotherapy" which pairs an equine specialist with a licensed mental health practitioner to help patients.She uses her horse herd on her Malvern farm to assist in the therapy, where the horses become metaphors for the patients and help them in their healing process.
