The EAGALA Model is a structured, solution-focused, experiential, and documented model that is used worldwide. EAGALA also provides the best services through providing a team approach consisting of a mental health professional, an equine specialist, and horses to help clients discover solutions to their underlying issues. As a result, all therapeutic services are provided in the highest professional standards. Each session requires the client(s) and horse(s) to accomplish a specific task that is designed to meet the goals of the client.

- We utilize an experiential psychotherapy model that incorporates cognitive-behavioral methods in a unique and captivating manner. Clients that lack verbal or social skills, motivation or interest in therapy can become engaged in the change process EAP (Equine Assisted Psychotherapy) and EAL (Equine Assisted Learning) sessions offer.
- Sessions are experiential, meaning clients are required to take the initiative, make decisions, and be accountable for outcomes. After the session, staff and clients process the session experiences through metaphorical learning where the clients apply the lessons learned to their lives.
- During sessions, clients are engaged in posing questions, experimenting, problem-solving, and finding personal meaning.
- Crossroads staff ensure client emotional and physical safety and facilitate the self-empowering therapy experience.
