Emotional Health Practitioner Program

This training is suitable for anyone looking to enhance their interpersonal skills and support emotional well-being through a holistic lens. 
The exercises are simple and accessible for people of all ages, yet their impact can be profound. Participants learn strategies to replace unhelpful habits in thought and behaviour with new and healthier patterns, strengthening the brain's neural pathways in the process.

Prerequisites:
While there are no formal requirements for the asynchronous Emotional Health Practitioner program, participants are often from helping and educational professions, including nursing, teaching, social work, psychotherapy, life coaching, and related fields. Parents, guardians, PSWs, yoga instructors, and those seeking to improve their own emotional health and well-being also find this program valuable.

Candidates should be comfortable navigating digital platforms and possess a moderate level of digital literacy.

Instructional and assignment hours: 12 hours +
