Holistic Counselling, Emotional Wellbeing & Mind-Body Support

This pathway is designed for students seeking a professional foundation in holistic counselling and emotional support work.

Holistic counselling recognises that emotional wellbeing is influenced by thoughts, emotions, nervous system regulation, behaviour patterns, and lived experience. Rather than focusing solely on symptoms, this pathway teaches students to understand the whole person and the interconnected nature of mental, emotional, and physical health.

Who This Pathway Is For

This pathway suits students who feel called to support others through emotional challenges, stress, burnout, and life transitions. Many begin for personal growth and later move into professional roles in wellbeing, coaching, or support-based environments.

Core Areas of Study

The Master Holistic Counsellor Certification Course forms the foundation of this pathway, providing structured counselling skills, ethical frameworks, communication techniques, and emotional assessment tools. It teaches students how to hold space safely, build rapport, and support meaningful change.

The Counsellor Course reinforces these skills with a focus on foundational counselling theory and practice, making it ideal for students who want a strong grounding before moving into advanced applications.

The Professional Stress Consultant Course introduces an understanding of stress physiology, burnout, and lifestyle impact, equipping students with tools to support nervous system regulation and resilience.

Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) adds a body-based emotional release method, helping students work with stored emotional responses in a practical and accessible way.

Mindfulness Practitioner and Meditation Instructor courses develop awareness-based tools that support emotional regulation, presence, and long-term wellbeing, both for personal practice and client support.

Counselling Children and Adolescents expands emotional understanding across developmental stages, ensuring students can adapt their approach for different ages and life experiences.

How the Courses Connect

Counselling theory provides the framework, while stress education, EFT, mindfulness, and meditation offer practical tools that bring theory into lived experience. Together, these courses help students understand not only what clients are experiencing, but how emotions are held in the body and nervous system. This creates a balanced, trauma-aware, and compassionate approach to emotional support.

How Students Progress

Students often begin with counselling foundations and gradually integrate stress, mindfulness, and somatic techniques as confidence grows.

What You Will Be Able To Do After Completing This Pathway

Graduates of this pathway in Australia commonly work in private holistic counselling or wellbeing coaching practices, community and not-for-profit support services, workplace wellbeing or employee assistance–style programs, disability and NDIS-related services, and wellness or allied health environments in non-clinical roles. Through this pathway, students develop practical counselling skills, including conducting structured sessions using holistic frameworks, building rapport, assessing emotional needs, creating support plans, and applying trauma-aware, stress-informed approaches that support nervous system regulation and emotional resilience.

Many graduates go on to establish a private holistic counselling or coaching business, add counselling services to an existing health or wellness practice, work as wellbeing coaches or support workers, or deliver mindfulness, stress management, and resilience programs in workplace settings. Courses in this pathway are recognised by Holistic Health Associates International (HHAI) and the International Institute for Complementary Therapists (IICT), which may assist eligible graduates in accessing professional indemnity and public liability insurance for private or client-facing roles in Australia.

Studying Flexibly with the All In Pass

Learning rarely follows a straight line. Many students begin with a single interest and, as their confidence and curiosity grow, feel drawn to explore complementary areas of study. The All In Pass is designed to support this natural learning process, giving students access to Health & Harmony’s full range of courses rather than locking them into a single qualification.

With the All In Pass, students can move freely between related subjects within this pathway — or explore other pathways entirely — as their interests evolve. This flexibility is especially valuable for those who are still discovering how they want to apply their learning, whether for personal growth, professional development, or a combination of both.

Students can begin with a free trial period, allowing them to experience the depth, teaching style, and variety of the courses before committing. After the trial, the All In Pass continues as a simple subscription, making it easier to study multiple disciplines without the pressure of choosing just one course upfront.

Rather than viewing education as a single decision, the All In Pass encourages exploration, integration, and long-term learning — supporting students as their understanding deepens and their pathway becomes clearer.
