A Heartfelt Thank You
Thank you, Ella, for the care and curiosity you brought to telling our story, and thank you to Chapman University for making space for it. When a local university invests in stories about mental health, it helps more people learn that support is close by and that reaching out is a strength.
What You Will See in the Segment
At our Costa Mesa location at the OC Fairgrounds Equestrian Center, our nine therapy horses work alongside licensed and associate clinicians. Horses are deeply attuned to the nervous system. They respond to what is happening in the body, not just what is said out loud, which gives clients a gentle, honest mirror for building safety, trust, and connection.
A moment that stayed with us Karla, a long-time community event attendee and volunteer, shared how it took a horse to bring into perspective parts of her story she still needed to process.

Why This Matters for Orange County
Walk Intuit is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit built on a simple belief: healing happens in relationship, with ourselves, with each other, with horses, and with the natural world. Our vision is a world where trauma healing is accessible to all, especially those most impacted by adversity.
