Animal Therapy And How It Affects Your Mental Health

Have you heard of animal therapy? Animal therapy, also called pet therapy, is a form of therapy where a person with a mental health issue get support from an animal. That animal can be a dog, cat, horse, or fish!

Various mental health problems benefit from animal therapy. They include but are not limited to Anxiety, Depression, Agoraphobia, and more. Children and adults alike can use animal therapy! 

Picture this out: Let’s say a patient lacks trust in his surroundings and often feels anxious. Having an animal beside him allows him to cope. The animal will provide psychological and physical stimulation such as encouraging the person to play, walk, go outside, and care for it. As a result, the person’s overall well-being improves.
