Take the First Nurturing Stride towards healing

Find Clarity

Feeling disconnected, stuck, or overwhelmed?

Life moves fast, but something inside feels off.

You might be doing everything “right”—keeping up with work, family, and daily demands—but underneath, you feel disconnected from yourself.

Maybe routines feel endless, energy is low, or clarity feels out of reach. You’re not alone.

Reconnect with Yourself

You don’t have to figure it out alone.

I guide women, alongside my horses, to reconnect with themselves.

Through our sessions, we pay attention to what your body is already communicating. The horses respond to what is true in the moment, reflecting back what words cannot.

Here, transformation isn’t something you have to analyze or force—it’s something you experience. You leave feeling more aligned, more present, and more clear about what’s real for you.

The short film below gives a glimpse into the horse human healing experience.

About Nurturing Strides

MY STORY

For many years, starting in my early teens until I moved over to Colorado, I rode horses. I loved being in their presence. This eventually led me on a journey to explore the healing power of horses and how I could use it to make a difference in other people’s lives.

Nurturing Strides Equine Gestalt Coaching

MEET MY EQUINE PARTNERS

Horses love harmony. They are masters at signaling to us, in a non-judgmental way, that we are not congruent, that is, when our mind, guts and body are not aligned. They know to guide us towards achieving congruency.

“Elisabeth is an amazing coach! She is very intuitive, calm and kind. She has an amazing gift and I would encourage anyone wanting to create a better life for themselves to do a session with Elisabeth!” – Melissa C, Denver, CO

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. – Melisa Pearce
