Holistic Health Studies Certificate

Help guide the evolution of healthcare.

Delve into holistic strategies for health care by incorporating a scientific approach to health and a broad understanding of methods for treating someone physically, mentally, and spiritually.

Integrate Holistic Health into Your Profession and Life.

St. Catherine has developed a graduate certificate in holistic health for students who want to explore the content of holistic health, but do not necessarily want to complete the entire graduate degree. This certificate will allow those students to achieve their educational goals.

At the core of the holistic health graduate certificate program is a commitment to cultural diversity and a respect for indigenous and ancient healing practices. The graduate curriculum draws on knowledge from all corners of life and all disciplines of study. You’ll gain a deeper understanding of healing traditions, along with your own cultural influences, as you investigate the historic constructs underpinning today's medical systems.

St. Kate’s academic and experiential program gives you the tools to integrate holistic health into a variety of professions and fields. Our holistic health studies certificate graduates apply their research-based knowledge, entrepreneurial spirit, caring, and creativity in a wide variety of capacities:

  • Healthcare providers who are seeking to integrate holistic and complementary skills into their practice
  • Mental health practitioners
  • Educators and other human development professionals
  • Independent professionals already working as, or seeking to work as, alternative and complementary health practitioners
