AUGUST 2020 KPA CTP OF THE MONTH
Consuelo López, KPA CTP, halted a study of literature to return to her greatest passion, horse riding. In addition to riding herself, she volunteered as a horse leader for an equine assisted therapy program. However, the atmosphere where the horses lived and trained felt wrong to Consuelo. “Most of the horses were shut down, scared, and avoidant,” she remembers. This exposure prompted her to enroll in a program to earn a postgraduate Diploma in Animal Assisted Therapy.
