The Healing Team
You
You’ve been in recovery for a while and consistently done the work, which has kept you on your path. But despite all that, you feel somehow incomplete – there’s something outside of your awareness that is poking at you, wanting to be acknowledged and healed. You want to be more than “in recovery” – you want to be BEYOND recovery: integrated, whole, and healthy. You know you’ve been holding yourself back, and you’re not sure how or why; but you do know that you are ready to unleash your full potential. You’re motivated to get to know the parts of yourself that may have been overshadowed along the way so that you can live a vibrant life, fulfilled, and aligned with your deepest values.
Me
My teenage years were troubled and rebellious but, in my 20s, I found sobriety. Eight years and a divorce later, I stumbled back down a path of self-destruction. I came off the rails and spiraled out of control, all the way to rock bottom at 36. I got sober again and this time it stuck. I finished the psychology degree I’d abandoned earlier and secured myself a safe and steady job. I was doing the work, but something was missing, and I felt unfulfilled. Looking up Melisa Pearce, my former therapist, I discovered her Equine Gestalt Coaching certification program. The two-year, intensive program incorporated deep process work that helped me get in touch with my many parts of self, healing old wounds to discover a strength and confidence I didn’t know I had in me. I’ve learned my triggers, my avoidance tactics, and how to respond rather than react. Most importantly, I’ve learned to love myself, flaws and all – and I want to help others find this same peace and confidence.
And a horse named Handsome
Imagine a coach who will always see your truth through all the stories you’ve told yourself and the world. Someone who will never judge you and who always has your back. In this work our Equine partners bring their own special and unique gifts to deepen our awareness and healing. Simply being in Handsome’s gentle presence will allow your body to relax, and will help move you into a state that is more open to creative play and problem solving. In the Equine Gestalt Coaching Method, the horses are equal and autonomous partners in the process, and each session is unique to what the horse sees in you in that moment. Allowing Handsome to help bring your unfinished business into your awareness, to hold nonjudgmental space for your process, and to be a steady presence alongside you as you learn to find your ground might just be the best gift you’ve ever given yourself.
