NOTE: All of our programs here at TLC include the option of complimentary AAT(Animal Assisted Therapy) as an added bonus for smoothing sessions and boosting results; studies have proven that the inclusion of AAT treatment bilaterally to other forms of therapeutic treatment greatly improve the effectiveness due to the significant drop in stress hormones provided by the contact with an animal along with the defusing of tension during first time experiences; the presence of a therapy animal also promotes healthy brain hormones that are proven to boost self esteem and communication skills.
