Animals as a therapeutic resource
This is a special workshop in honor of Saxon - who entered the therapeutic space from having lived in few foster homes before he found his forever home at 3yrs. For the next 12 years he was able to teach counsellors, carers, parents how to carry a mindful presence and embody unconditional love when facing challenging situations with children. He listened to children’s worries and helped them feel safe to sleep well at nights. He awarded for his achievements as a pet therapist.
This workshop is honoring his work and also passing his animal wisdom to anyone who love and have animals (dog, cat, horse, guinea-pig, bird, stuffed toys too) to understand the principles of regulation that we have freely available to use as a resource for love and healing.
