  1. Hi everyone! I just graduated with my BA in Psych, and looking to get my MSW degree. I am a huge fan of University of Denver's MSW program, with the clinical concentration & specialty area in AASW. Particularly, I love the research on the human-animal connection, the hands on instruction of training a dog for therapeutic work, and also to not only be a social worker for the people, but for animals as well. I am residing out of New England, so unfortunately the journey out to CO is way to financially strenuous, and emotionally challenging to be that far away from family. It should be mentioned that I am familiar of the EAGALA model of equine assisted psychotherapy & on the path to completing my certification, so I am familiar with the equine approach, but interested in hearing about incorporating other animals in practice. Question for you all is, if you are using any animals in a therapeutic setting, particularly canine's, how did you get there? What is the most cost effective way in achieving it, for someone who has not yet received their license? Any universities/certificates/educational programs you know of and/or have experience with on the east coast (I prefer to get my MSW - but willing to explore different degree avenues)? And finally, any experience with social work for animals? Thank you!!! - Nicole
