As a licensed therapist you are able to facilitate in TI-EAT or TI-EAP, or as a certified life coach you can do TI-EAL. As an Equine Professional you can co-facilitate with a licensed therapist or do TI-EAL.</div><div style="box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; position: inherit; color: rgb(29, 54, 92); font-family: Inter, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(249, 249, 249); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><br style="box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;"></div><div style="box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; position: inherit; color: rgb(29, 54, 92); font-family: Inter, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(249, 249, 249); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">I hope that brings some clarity as you consider how you want to move forward.
