Animal-Assisted Therapy
for Youth and Adults

"Spending time in nature and with animals provides endless opportunities to develop confidence, empathy, and the ability to understand how our behavior impacts others. In relationships with animals, we learn to connect without the challenges of language, setting the stage for profound growth and learning experiences"

Our Values

Connection & Relationship

Connection and relationship are essential prerequisites for improving skills and personal growth – we learn and grow best with others and within a community of individuals we feel ‘simpatico’ with.

Experiential Learning

Learning by doing (engaging both our minds and bodies) is a powerful way to enhance well-being

and create transformation.

Trust & Respect

All individuals (animal and human) are worthy of respect, love and understanding; at The Simpatico Center, we provide trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming services

that acknowledge the inherent value and worth of others
