The approach
What is animal assisted therapy?
Therapy sessions that involve a trained animal, most often a dog, as part of the work. It's used with children, trauma survivors and people who find direct conversation difficult. By definition it can't be delivered over video, so platforms listing it are offering an in-person or hybrid service in a specific city.

Confirm the location
This is an in-person service. Check the city and travel time before anything else.
- 2
Ask about the animal's training
There's a real difference between a certified therapy animal and the practitioner's own friendly pet.
- 3
Check allergies and comfort honestly
A session you spend anxious about the dog is worse than no session.
