Animal-assisted therapy (AAT) is a treatment utilizing animals to help someone reach their therapeutic goals. AAT has been around for may years. It has persevered through years of mockery to become a valuable tool for reaching and teaching children with emotional and behavioral disorders. This thesis examines how educators and therapists can use AAT to connect with and treat these children. From research in this field, the author addresses why AAT works so well with children and how current professionals can use the therapy to treat children with EBD."--leaf .
