“The ‘Life After’ workshop is an empowering approach to processing
grief. We use horse assisted therapy combined with The Four Tasks of
Mourning to help those suffering from loss to find a healthy path
forward. There is no riding involved so horsemanship skills are not
necessary,” said April Doolin, Equine Specialist at ‘The Stable.’
New Perspective

Previous workshop participants have already benefited from “Life
After.” Participants dealing with the loss of a loved one have been
able to see immediate improvements in their perspective on life.
“Life After” enables participants to embrace the new normal that
their life has become.
“This type of therapy allows people to take internal and abstract
thoughts and feelings and project them onto external objects and
animals. Being able to touch, move and interact with those abstract
ideas brings a fresh perspective and healing from pain,” said
Tedrick.

Up to eight spots are available for those 18 years old and up. To

cooperative venture between Rolling Prairie
Stables and Lincoln Pastoral Counseling Service,
The Stable uses the EAGALA mode of therapy to
incorporate horses into the treatment team.
Everything is ground-based, no riding is
involved. The team is made up of a mental health
professional, equine specialist, and a small
herd of horses. The interactive nature of the
therapy sessions allows for a unique processing
of emotions and events to occur that traditional
talk therapy doesn’t offer. The combination of
the intuitive nature of horses and the use of
metaphor makes this mode of therapy powerful and
effective. The Stable holds occasional group
events as well as individual therapy sessions.
More information is available at The Stable’s
website found at www.atthestable.org or by
