The Equine Gestalt Coaching Method® was developed by Melisa Pearce, a core founder since 1989, of the horse-human healing movement. The experiential nature of the method involves the horse as an active partner with the coach in the client’s exploratory process. The integrative approach of the equine’s interaction combined with positive coaching, somatic awareness guidance and Gestalt methodology, assists the client in examining their life and choices made with a focus on designing a positive future.
As an Equine Gestalt Coach rooted in trauma-informed practices, I have a deep understanding of how trauma can shape and influence lives in profound ways. Regardless of its source or intensity, I know that trauma leaves a lasting imprint, but I also know that healing is possible. Through my training and experience, I offer more than just support—I'm here as a compassionate, empathetic presence, walking alongside you through the toughest of times.
In my work, I create a safe and nurturing space where you can explore your feelings and experiences freely, without fear of judgment or further hurt. I believe in your innate worth, treating you with the utmost respect and dignity, and honoring your ability to heal, grow, and transform.
Rather than seeing people through the lens of labels or limitations, I see you as whole, resilient, and capable of overcoming even the most daunting challenges. My mission is to help you reconnect with your inner strength, guiding you on a journey of self-discovery and healing. Together, we'll unlock your potential and move forward with hope, courage, and a renewed sense of possibility.
Horses possess an extraordinary gift—they can sense our emotions and intentions with remarkable precision, often recognizing when we're not fully present or sincere. They are living embodiments of mindfulness, showing us the power of being in the moment and releasing what no longer serves us. In their effortless grace, we find a profound lesson: to embrace authenticity and live with purpose.
In our busy human lives, we often become tangled in our thoughts, disconnected from our emotions and the world around us. Yet, horses, in their quiet wisdom, call us back to our truest selves. Through their gentle guidance, they remind us to reconnect with our bodies, our feelings, and our deepest truths, helping us realign with our inner path and the present moment. Their silent strength inspires us to let go, trust, and live fully.
