Equine therapy which Anthony Weiner participated in at a Meadows-style facility called Recovery Ranch in Nunnelly, Tenn. encourages sex addicts, many of whom may be emotionally calloused from their desires to deceive loved ones, to rediscover how it feels to take care of another living being.
You go into a big arena and there are horses, said the source. Ten of us spent 20 or 30 minutes walking around and interacting with the horses. We got a sense of their personalities and talked about it when we got back. You talked about how the horses responded to you and then tied it back to your life, to how you interact with people at work and with family members.
Celebrities do not cruise the Internet, searching for where to go for rehab, Schrank said. They get advice from their people. The Meadows is respected, in part, because it has groundbreaking doctors like Patrick Carnes [the founder of Gentle Path who is said to have coined the term sex addict] and markets to individual therapists in high-income Zip codes. I wouldnt be surprised if they market to agents and managers as well. This is a business, just like booking conventions into hotels. They bring you out to see the facility and to meet the clinical staff. Plus, they do a good job and there is a limited number of places that treat sex addiction.
Still, some experts say that celebrity offenders dont always show up to rehab for the sincerest of reasons. A lot of these people go in because its something for their publicists to say [as public retribution], said Schrank. However, they can actually gain insight from the clinical process if they are open to it.

Carlos Danger now has a horse?
