SHSS Faculty Member Presents on Equine Therapy at Conference in Texas
Shelley Green, Ph.D.
Shelley Green, Ph.D., faculty in the Department of Family Therapy (DFT) in the Graduate School of Humanities and Social Sciences (SHSS), presented at Conversation-Fest 2013 in Galveston, Texas. The conference theme was, “Opening Doors to Possibilities: Inviting Dialogue, Stories and Community in Therapy and Social Transformation.” Green’s presentation was entitled, “Straight from the Horse’s Mouth: Equine Assisted Clinical Work and Training.”
Several years ago Green initiated a course, Equine Assisted Family Therapy, the first of its kind to be housed in a nationally accredited family therapy program. In addition to her work with equine therapy, Green’s other research interests include human sexuality and gender, and systems theories. With her husband Douglas Flemons, Ph.D., she is the co-editor of the book, Quickies: The Handbook of Brief Sex Therapy (2007).
