Currently, there is no formal regulatory or governing body that oversees or certifies cancer coaching specifically.
Cancer coaching is considered a specialized application of professional coaching principles within the context of cancer survivorship — similar to how health coaching applies coaching to broader wellness or chronic disease management.
At the Cancer Wellness Institute, we believe that specialized, ethical training is essential for serving survivors responsibly. Our certifications are designed to:
Equip you with trauma-informed, survivor-centered coaching skills
Ensure you understand scope of practice boundaries to protect your clients and your business
Help you stand out as a credible, knowledgeable professional within the integrative health, coaching, and survivorship support spaces
Completing our certification programs demonstrates your commitment to:
Evidence-based, client-centered coaching
Ongoing professional development
Ethical, responsible support of cancer survivors
Our Foundations Certification and CPD Course are globally respected by coaching organizations, survivorship nonprofits, wellness centers, and integrative healthcare practitioners.
