Research
Our research explores human-animal interactions from a mixed methods biopsychosocial approach focused on human-canine and human-equine partnerships.
Our central focus is understanding the impacts of animal-assisted interventions on the participants and their families.
Most of our work is focused on either military-connected or civilian trauma.
We are passionate about understanding how we can partner with animals to create effective interventions for the benefit of both the people and the animals involved.
