Animal-assisted activity and coaching

Animal-assisted coaching and animal-assisted activities are informal activities where humans and animals interact with the help of a coach and/or solve tasks together. No specific therapeutic goals are planned, and there is no obligation for documentation. The content of the visit is spontaneous and unplanned. The animal-assisted activity generally aims to improve quality of life and increase well-being.

As a licensed physiotherapist, counseling advisor, and certified ADHD coach, I can optimally support animal-assisted activities. The presence of animals contributes to strengthening personal development and helps further develop social and/or socio-emotional skills through:

- Emotional and social support

- Motivation and promotion of physical activity

- Basic stimulation through touching the animal
