Therapeutic principles

Caregivers: a key role

Caregivers (parents, spouses or brothers and sisters) are involved in the proposed care path: they are invited to attend the sessions and participate in the assessment at the end of the care. They can thus observe the progress made of their loved one throughout the program and imagine new strategies to adapt and improve daily life.

At the same time, Equiphoria systematically offers direct support to you, the caregivers. It centers around the evolution of positioning and behavior as a caregiver, to allow you to develop your strengths and reduce the fatigue associated with your role.

To her, it doesn’t feel as if it were the […]
