Accreditation FAQ
Thank you for your interest in the Holistic Counsellor Accreditation Program.
Below we answer some of the most Frequently Asked Questions about the program.
For additional questions not addressed here, please contact us.
What is a Holistic Counsellor?
A Holistic Counsellor is a professional, of the helping relation, who is able to empathically listen to problems, existential and/or relational uneasiness of clients while supporting self-cognizance and self-awareness. The Holistic Counsellor works to support the emerging of awareness in the clients about issues which might jeopardize their full expression as human beings.
The Holistic Counsellor does not diagnose, does not prescribe medications and remedies, and does not offer therapy or healing. He/she supports the development of the inherent potentialities of the clients in order to overcome the obstacles which prevent a free and full individual expression in the world. He/she activates resources and empowerment processes in individual or group settings. He/she works with a mind and a heart open to the mysterious, with lovingness and humanness. The Holistic Counsellor accompanies the client, with humbleness and clarity of intentions, in a space of silence and transmutation in which everything can happen.
