RAFFAEL
Animal Assisted Intervention
Raffael 9 years - He has learning and concentration difficulties combined with ADHD. The 9-year-old is extremely intelligent, but has a shortened attention span and a rapid decline in concentration and perseverance. He attends the 2nd grade of a primary school and is particularly fond of animals. For this reason, Raffael's parents would like to enable their son to receive support with animal-assisted units: Animals in a therapeutic setting help, support and accompany, promote emotional closeness, physical warmth and the child's self-confidence. Last but not least, animals create an ideal balance to the learning situation and can set positive accents in case of recurring negative experiences. This not only has a positive effect on the overall development, but also results in increased motivation.
