Training for well-being practitioners UK
Our training for wellbeing practitioners in the UK supports you to deepen your work through a whole-human approach to mental health and wellbeing. Integrating mind, body and nervous system awareness, these courses are designed to help you respond to clients safely, ethically and with greater confidence. Whether you work in movement, body-based therapies or holistic health, this training supports you to expand your understanding while staying grounded in your existing scope of practice.
An Introduction to Whole-Human Therapy
Develop your skills within a trauma-informed, whole-human framework
To become a member of The Holistic Humans Community, every practitioner completes our introductory course in Whole-Human Therapy. This foundational training introduces a polyvagal-informed and trauma-aware approach, supporting practitioners to work safely, ethically, and in alignment with our shared values.
You’ll learn alongside practitioners from a range of disciplines, including qualified counsellors, creating space for shared understanding, skill development and appropriate cross-referral. This multi-disciplinary approach supports a more trauma-informed way of working, allowing you to take what you learn back into your own practice setting with clarity and confidence.
Learn to hold space safely: Counselling skills for wellbeing practitioners
As a massage therapist, yoga teacher, or other wellbeing professional, you may often find clients opening up about personal or emotional challenges. Listening is part of your work, but sometimes it can feel overwhelming or outside your professional scope. That’s where our Level 2 and Level 3 Counselling Skills courses come in — designed to help you support clients safely, confidently, and ethically.
These courses aren’t about turning you into a counsellor overnight. Instead, they give you the tools to listen, respond, and contain emotional material in a professional way. You’ll learn how to hold space, recognise boundaries, and respond safely when clients share sensitive experiences — all while respecting your own wellbeing and limitations.
Next courses start September 2026.
