Today, the multiple physical, social and mental benefits of interacting with animals in controlled environments are indisputable. In fact, such benefits were already present in therapeutic contexts long before documented scientific evidence was made widely available. This academic program will focus on gathering and understanding the different lines of intervention used in the area of Animal-Assisted Therapies (AAI).  

This training covers advanced and specialized knowledge of AAI as applied to the different disabilities that can be addressed with this type of intervention. Different disabilities will be delineated and differentiated while learning will be focused on specific areas: intellectual, physical, sensory and psychic. AAIs are intended for health or human service providers within a professional setting. They are designed to promote improvement in human physical, social, emotional or cognitive function. They are provided in a variety of settings, both group and individual. 

With this training, professionals will have the ability to develop Assisted Therapy methodologies based on specific patient objectives or a systematic methodology that guarantees learning. The development of new therapeutic methodologies to counteract the negative effects of stress generated by social, cultural and biological impact, make Assisted Interventions a natural alternative for integration within the environment. 

Psychologists will acquire theoretical and practical skills to work with children, adolescents, adults and elderly people with different types of disabilities. All the interventions in health, education and social areas trained professionals are already familiar with will be given a special focus, including animal participation in the therapeutic, social and educational improvement of patients.
