Tiergestützte Interventionen

The inclusion of animals represents an ideal approach in many therapeutic and educational fields. Through positive fundamental attitudes such as appreciation, resource-, context-, and solution-oriented approaches, as well as a variety of methods, animal-assisted work is an important tool.

The handbook describes pathways and approaches to animal-assisted interventions and provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of research and practice. It consolidates relevant knowledge into a single work and serves as a guide for all questions related to animal-assisted interventions. Topics include fundamental theories and models, various settings, specific challenges of working with animals, different forms of application, and conditions of care.

A foundational work for animal-assisted practice.
