What our graduates say

Health coaches, nurses, clinicians, and wellness professionals in the US, the UK, Australia, and across the globe have trained with Cancer Wellness Institute. Here is what they told us after finishing.

The Integrative Cancer Coach Certification Program is a deeply valuable training for anyone who wants to support people affected by cancer in a meaningful, empowering way. The curriculum is thorough, practical, and delivered in an accessible self-paced format. Learning a coaching approach that empowers clients rather than “fixes” them was both refreshing and transformative. This program opened a new path in my professional life and strengthened my ability to serve survivors and caregivers with confidence. Kara Kenan is an excellent instructor, and I highly recommend this training to both new coaches and healthcare professionals.
