Grief Coach
Grief is the normal response of sorrow, emotion, and confusion that comes from losing someone or something that was important to you. It is a natural part of life. Sadly in our society we look at grief as an abnormal situation and the feelings that are experienced are often medicated or diagnosed as some sort of mental health crisis. Traditional talk therapy can be helpful, however it can be limited.
Holistic Grief Coaching focuses on the mind, body and spirit and is the opportunity to connect on a one-to-one basis, focusing on the individual; therefore, goals such as personal growth and life-enhancing tools are more attainable. Our Holistic Grief Coaching certification is a 30-credit hour program that provides the student with the tools to work with people who are grieving or experiencing a loss.
