Your First Step: Stabilize

Before we go deeper, we begin with something most people skip—finding your footing again.

Right now, your only job is this:

  • Let your body settle

  • Find one small moment of calm

  • Give yourself permission to pause

Whether that looks like sitting quietly with a cup of tea, stepping outside for fresh air, or simply noticing your breath…

This is where healing begins.

  • Not in pushing.


  • Not in forcing.


  • But in stabilizing.

You Are Not Alone
If you’re in the middle of this, it can feel isolating, overwhelming, and disorienting.

Like the ground beneath you has shifted—and nothing feels steady anymore.

I want you to hear this clearly:

  • You are not broken.
You are responding to something incredibly hard.

  • And you don’t have to carry it by yourself.

Why This Work Is Different

I don’t teach this work from theory.

I’ve lived it.

I know what it feels like to lose your footing, your confidence, and your clarity—and to question how you’re going to move forward.

After walking through some of life’s hardest moments, I learned something most traditional approaches miss:

Healing doesn’t start by going deeper.
It starts by building stability.

That’s what this work is about.

Confidence through Connection

Confidence through Connection is a guided experience designed to help you rebuild from the ground up—gently, intentionally, and at your own pace.

Through a unique blend of equine-assisted connection, practical tools, and real-life application, you will begin to:

  • Regain emotional stability

  • Reconnect with yourself

  • Build trust in your own decisions

  • Create a foundation strong enough to move forward

This isn’t about rushing your healing.

It’s about creating something steady enough to stand on again.

How to Begin

You don’t have to figure everything out today.

Just take the next step.

Step 1: Reach out or schedule a call

Step 2: We talk about where you are and what you need

Step 3: You decide if this feels right for you

No pressure. No expectations. Just a conversation.

CLIENT REVIEWS/TESTIMONIALS

M Sandvig. 5/22/24

I’ve been working with Michelle at Spirit Mountain Healing Services for about 8 months now. I wanted to try something different beyond the traditional talk therapy that I’ve done many times before. From my first session I was amazed at how different this therapy was. Working with the horses and seeing how they mirror our emotions and energy was transformational. We focused on self, connecting to self, and really peeling back the layers that helped me understand why I do and react the way I do. Each session she met me where I was at and walked me through recognizing some of the trauma I’ve carried around with myself. She holds you accountable, helps you recognize the feelings that come up, and helps you move the energy and clear it with the help of the horses. Every time I walk away from a session, I’m able to put into practice the tools that I’ve learned. This is where the magic happens! Unlike traditional talk therapy where you just bring up issues, equine therapy helps you move through them and really shift. Your body learns and feels the difference while the horses help you regulate yourself even down to your heartbeat. I’ve been able to navigate some pretty heavy issues including grief, loss, people pleasing, relationship dynamics, critical talk and so much more. My confidence has grown tremendously, my self worth is now a reflection of myself and not others, and I can handle my emotions in a much more manageable way. I no longer live in the extremes and my relationships, friendships, and even my role as a mom have improved by healing a lot of what I had been carrying and stuffing down inside me for the last 30 plus years. Michelle & her horses have changed my life. My 10 year old son now attends his own sessions to work on confidence and friendship dynamics. Family members have also recognized the changes in me and are now working with Michelle to help themselves. I’m an entirely different version of myself than I was 8 months ago and I’m really thankful for Michelle and her horses (including the minis) at Spirit Mountain Healing Services. If you’re on the fence, attend one session and feel the power of equine therapy. I promise you, it’s worth it!

“Our teenaged son has attended only a few appointments so far with Michelle and her horses, and he’s already exhibiting incredible results.
Prior to finding Spirit Mountain, our son would get angry at the littlest things, he would lose his temper easily, and he most often wanted to isolate himself in his bedroom. He was diagnosed with OCD, ADHD, anxiety, and depression. His friendships outside of the home and relationships with family members were struggling, his grades were struggling. After the very first visit with Michelle, he talked the entire way home. he was so excited, he learned so much and he wanted to tell us all about it! He’s been more talkative and interactive with the people in his life. He’s smiling more and helping around the house again.
Every appointment with Michelle has been better than the last.
We have spent a fortune on every type of therapy and medication we could find with the hopes of helping our son through these difficult years. Michelle has been the absolute best therapist we have found. She is worth every single penny and
then some.”

"Our experience with Michelle started about a year ago when I requested her services for our daughter Anastasia. At that moment my daughter was 14 years old and under signs of depression and suicidal thoughts. Michelle and her amazing horses helped Anastasia tremendously! She did not feel like doing therapy, but every time she was coming out of a session, she looked very happy. Later on, same year, I started myself therapy and things only got better. Michelle is very knowledgeable, caring, straight to the point and very positive therapist. We already recommend her with our friends and family that were looking for a great therapy. A very powerful experience that we recommend to try at least once, you will be amazed on how much you enjoy it!!"‍ ‍

I’m the Founder and Chief Empowerment Officer (CEO) of
Spirit Mountain Healing Services, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, is an
Equine-Assisted Life Coach, and the creator of
Confidence through Connection.

But more than that—

I’m someone who has walked through the kind of life experiences that change you.

After facing some of life’s toughest moments, I learned something that reshaped everything:

Healing doesn’t begin by going deeper.
It begins by finding stability and rebuilding your foundation.

For over 40 years, horses have been my greatest teachers.

  • They mirror truth.

  • They teach boundaries.

  • They bring you back to presence—whether you’re ready or not.

Long before I had the clinical language through my Master’s in Counseling Psychology, the horses were already showing me the way.

And when my own life unraveled, those lessons became my foundation.

They helped me rebuild.

That’s why I created Confidence through Connection.

This program is designed for women navigating the
3-Ds: Death, Divorce, and Domestic Violence

Women who are ready to find their footing again, reconnect with themselves, and move forward with clarity and strength.

I know this path intimately.

  • I’ve lived it.

  • I’ve survived it.

  • And I’ve learned from it.

This work isn’t about becoming someone new.

It’s about coming back to who you are.

When you're ready, let's talk.

You don’t have to have it all figured out.

You just have to take the first step.
