Lisa Pulliam
Founder of Stableminded
Welcome, I'm here for you.
I know firsthand how challenging life can be both on the personal and professional front. I get it that our culture urges us towards independence and self-sufficiency, so asking for help, support, and guidance is an uncomfortable step for just about all of us.
I'm here to make that step feel safe.
In fact, I want that step to not only feel good for you, but actually reap the benefits of helping you overcome your current challenges, make sense of what you've been through, and find hope for the good that your future can hold.
When it comes to working together, my number one goal is to listen to you with empathy while also digging into your story to understand what makes you tick and help you strategize your best next step.
I want to know you so that I can help you get unstuck in a way that resonates with your realistic limits and unrealized potential!
How do I do this? I use a trauma-informed approach in integrating coaching, counseling, and consulting techniques to explore what has shaped your life. I help you identify what is not working while considering your priorities, values, and decisions. In strategizing solutions, I guide you to tap into your natural wiring so that your strengths and earned resiliency can become your superpower.
No matter what, I'm here to help you stabilize and grow, in as short a time as possible, so you can thrive in the life you were made for!
Wondering what is the best next step for you? Let's chat about that and find out!
What I Bring to You!
This vision for Stableminded is inspired by my journey of emerging from a legacy of abuse and dysfunction to find healing and wholeness. Combining all the benefits I received through coaching, therapy, and love of horses, as well as the foundation of my faith, my story has become my passion to help others.
I entered into the helping field as a coach, trained through Life Breakthrough Academy, which was followed by training as Highlands Ability Battery Consultant and Natural LIfemanship Institute Equine-Assisted Coach and Specialist. I later earned my Master's in Clinical Counseling from Eastern University and was trained in EMDR. For the last 20 years, I've led my own businesses and ministry as well as serving in various leadership capacities for other organizations.
This training and experience lay the foundation for what I offer clients and shape the unique perspective I have on understanding life history and also tapping into strengths for moving forward.
I'm equally passionate about working with you in person at the barn in Narvon, PA, for an office-based or equine-assisted session or online. While my primary focus is on supporting women, I am equally excited to serve high school and college-age students. Plus, I'm happy to focus the work around particular needs, such as serving equestrians, mental health professionals, and business/ministry/organizational leaders and teams.
When I'm not at the stables loving on Kodiak Jack, my 2010 Off-the-Track Thoroughbred I rescued in July of 2022, I can be found savoring time with my husband of 28 years, all-grown-up children and son-in-love, and being entertained by my beloved Golden Retriever.

Testimonials
What Other's Are Saying
Marcy, Mental Health Professional
Robyn, Equestrian Coaching Client
Lisa McCartney, Therapist
Lisa gave me an invaluable experience working with her and Teddy. It was so special…the exposure and connection to a horse helped me to overcome some of my fear of horses and also made me aware of the times when fear shows up in my relationships and how I can navigate that in a healthier way.
Mary Taylor, Personal Vision Coaching & Restorative Retreat Client
This experience is the beginning of becoming the person I want to be. The work we did with and without the horses gave me such insights into decisions I need/ want to make and a clearer sense of being. Lisa was able to identify and show me how I was being present. She guided me through activities that helped me identify past and present behaviors that have prevented me from making decisions. The stables are located in one of the most beautiful areas and just being there invites a sense of calm. I can’t say enough about this experience, for me, it’s the start of becoming a better me.
Margie Keith
I'd been wandering, without a real sense of purpose or direction since I graduated high school. There were so many things I wanted to do with my life that I couldn't figure out how to settle on one thing. Through coaching sessions and the Highlands Battery Assessment, Lisa facilitated the process of identifying my goals, resulting in moving to Colorado and living the life I longed for.
Alida Barnes
It is not an overstatement to say that working with Lisa has changed my life! Lisa has a gentle, loving way of approaching our time together that challenges me and gives me actionable steps to move forward. She is not afraid to step into the hard places with me. I have learned to be vulnerable and insightful through coaching.
Rachel Thomas Steadman, Bridge of Hope, Chester County
You were clear and helpful to all of us. I was especially thinking how useful the information on managing stress was to parents, in how they respond to children who are causing them stress. You were amazing and I thank you!
