Holistic Life Coach Certification
Holistic life coaching views the client as the expert of their own life. The coach works as a guide and facilitator, helping the client to explore their own thoughts, feelings, and experiences in a non-judgmental and supportive way. When you earn this professional certification, you can help each client to gain greater self-awareness, and clarity. Use this credential to be an authority when helping people improve their health, well-being, contentment, happiness, fulfillment and bliss – all holistically.
Think about it…
You will take the knowledge, skills, and best practices from your training and use them to enhance the lives of others who are wanting to live holistically.
You will be qualified to work in a variety of settings, serving a diverse collection of clients. Everyday will feel new, and more exciting than the day before.
Clients are looking for someone who resonates with their values and goals, and who has the training and experience to support their holistic journey. Our CHLC training gives you powerful tools for creating lasting change and transformation.
The goal of holistic life coaching is to help your client create a more fulfilling and balanced life, in alignment with their values and purpose.
Your skills will often require helping clients to make changes in multiple areas of their life. The focus is always on the client as a whole person, rather than just one specific aspect of their life.

When you earn this certification, you will help people gain optimal balance and harmony in their life!
Holistic means “holism” or being “whole”. You can think of it as enhancing personal development from a multi-directional approach. In a holistic perspective, you view the person as a complete being, rather than an individual who may have an unresolved parts of their lives. When you view your client’s current state holistically, a better and more comprehensive resolution becomes clearer.
What are your career options? How will you make a living with this credential?
Some primary careers include: coaching clients one-on-one in their home, your home, or your office. Many coaches offer group coaching to help more people and earn more money per hour. In addition, you can serve in corporate settings, write a holistic blog, or host a podcast related to holism. Consider other options, such as being a professional speaker, author, or provide content on your own YouTube channel. You can also offer your services online using video platforms like Zoom, Skype or FaceTime to coach individuals. You can also offer holistic coaching to groups - both small and large. So, earn your credential and get ready to go out and make a difference!
After successfully earning your certification, you can work with clients on two primary levels right away.
“Primary” because of the endless options for coaching your clients on success in life from a holistic perspective.
On the BODY, or physical level, you will be working with what is happening with your client’s whole physical experience. You will coach your clients to create environments and action plans that support their physical goals and desires for a healthy body thriving lifestyle.
On the MIND or mental level, you will work with your clients to uncover the underlying limiting beliefs and patterns that cause physical manifestations such as a headache or other signs of stress. You will coach your clients to create and incorporate new thoughts, beliefs and actions that are aligned with their values, goals and desires.
People are experiencing life on a multitude of levels and often become out of balance in one area or another. These imbalances can lead to serious challenges in one’s life, as well as in their relationships with others. This can ultimately lead a person into major obstacles in pursuit of their personal and professional goals.

Expanded Bonus Materials that Deliver What Coaches Need to Thrive
On its own, evidence-based knowledge sounds great – but what does it mean to a coach? To advance coaching from training to application, we believe steps required are often left out. This leads a well informed coach asking “great, I know a lot but not enough to actually coach”.
With your investment in any Spencer Institute certification, you will receive a collection of curated content in the complementary Essential Coaching Skills course. This course will be added to your account upon logging in to your student account.
We provide interactive modules to master your coaching presence. Learn how to start fresh with a client and where to take things from there. Our mission: get the coach comfortable so that you can focus on your client and your strategies. It’s that simple.

“I found the CHLC course to be very informative and useful in my own holistic journey. I’ve learned a lot of valuable information from taking the CHLC course. The course materials has helped me to align myself with my holistic life and business goals. The holistic coaching techniques described in the manual will assist me in developing my coaching style. I would also like to point out that I found the CHLC exam to be challenging never-the-less that it was an open book exam. Which is a good thing. Most open book exams are extremely easy. I’m grateful to have taken your course and look forward to enrolling in another course at a later date”.

Results we have
helped create
Learning life coaching at the Spencer Institute has been a great way for me to increase my business base. I really liked that I could work full time while learning life coaching on my own time schedule. Not only do I now have coaching clients, but I also attract more psychotherapy clients who choose me because I can do coaching in addition to psychotherapy.
The Spencer Institute Coaching programs are informative while being exciting and cutting edge. Their variety of approaches to coaching holistically keeps my business fresh and me coming back for more.
I am a lifelong learner, and firmly believe no matter how much we know, we can always discover more!! My brother told me about Spencer Institute, and I thank him because it really amped up my skills in coaching clients. Being a busy mom, I absolutely loved the distance learning since it fits with my hectic schedule, and I was able to do the courses at my own pace!
I completed the personal fitness chef, fitness nutrition coach and kid’s nutrition specialist programs (some from NESTA) and I am so glad that I did. Most recently, I’ve been giving talks on healthy snacking to children and I am finding that it complements my cooking schedule. It’s a nice complement to the work I do in the kitchen. I just wanted to say thanks!
