Holistic Coach Training Institute Reviews

Life changing experience for me. I've taken other courses and trainings and this is BY FAR the most exceptional program I've ever been through. Bev and her team are absolutely incredible. They provide such a safe environment and attract a beautiful community of people. I loved my cohort and it was the perfect size for learning. 10/10 recommend. I would take this course even if i wasn't planning on becoming a coach; the skills I learned have improved my communication with everyone in my life (work, friends, family, etc). Bev is so generous and truly helps you to understand, learn, and develop the skills as a coach. Can't give enough praise for HCTI!

I had the great experience of being ICF and holistically trained by The Holistic Coach Institute. I highly recommend this platform to anyone seeking a coaching certificate. It made all the difference in the world to my effectiveness as a coach, a spiritual intuitive, and a business owner.

As someone who defies the "one-and-only" standard learning recipe, I'm so glad that I did my ACC training with HCTI and the supportive cohort that Bev curated. We had a safe space to practice and listen to each other learning to apply the fundamental coaching framework, and I finished the program feeling like a much stronger coach and knowing what I'm doing - not just minute by minute in client sessions, but also how I'm developing holistically as a coach who holds space for others and for myself.

From my first interaction through the entire experience, HCTI felt like a “meant to be” fit and the right place to invest in myself. I enrolled in Level 1 (notably, with zero pressure or selling) and found it so rewarding that I went on to complete Level 2. The program is professional, thorough, practical, and deeply relevant. I gained valuable tools and resources, and had meaningful opportunities to practice while receiving thoughtful feedback and encouragement. The holistic approach deepened both the learning and the overall experience. An added bonus was connecting weekly with high-caliber humans also committed to growth. If your next chapter is leading you in this direction, I highly recommend starting here.

Holistic Life Coaching Training Institute provided me with transformative knowledge, a supportive community, and invaluable resources that helped me align with my life’s purpose. What stands out most is the personal growth I experienced simply by showing up to class; each session was a step toward deeper self-awareness and empowerment.

Searching for an ICF accredited training program was so overwhelming for me! I somehow stumbled into this program and it was life changing. If you are looking for an in-depth program where you will grow personally and professionally AND leave with everything you need to pursue ICF certification - look no further! Book a Discovery Call and see if it fits your needs. Enjoy the journey!

My sincere thanks to the Holistic Coach Training Institute for offering an invaluable certification course that is so thoughtfully and intentionally created. It is easy to see that each facet of the training is designed with care, and in alignment with the International Coaching Federation, in order to set every coach up for success.

The Holistic Coach training program was life changing on a number of levels for me. It brought a new perspective and approach to all the conversations and relationships in my life as well as any healing modality I step into. It not only has provided an amazing framework for coaching, but a framework for stepping outside of the ego and focusing on other's magnificence. I will utilize the skills I learned in this course for any healing modality I venture into. Thank you Bev for this wonderful blessing you have created. <3

I finish HCCP with Beverly. It was an amazing experience. Good teaching methods, allow you to have your unique journey. After this experience, I became a different person. I slowed down, my vocabulary changed, and my level of confidence changed. I learned to listen to other people and keep space for them. I truly recommend it!

I truly enjoyed the Holistic Coach Certification Advanced Training Program. The program's design, which breaks the 37 markers into bite-sized learning pieces, deepens understanding through discussion, application, and feedback, cultivates an open, safe, and explorative learning atmosphere, and, most importantly, features the instructor's absolute loving presence, was excellent. Working towards ICF credentialing would have been a very tough process if I hadn't joined this training program and received all the wonderful support! This experience is truly igniting, inspiring, and nurturing. I highly recommend it to any life coaches who wish to advance their coaching skills and proceed with ICF credentials.

The way Bev guides you through the process is second to none. I've been in other coaching programs but have never felt so held during the process. No question goes unanswered and I always felts heard during the group sessions. The feedback given by her and Gage is constructive and provided in a caring and loving way. If you want to be a Holistic Coach and feel nothing but love and support during the process - this is the program for you!

I have engaged with Beverly at HCTI in multiple ways, and can whole-heartedly recommend her certification program as well as her coaching services. I wasn't searching for an ICF-approved coach certification when Bev reached out to me from a previous association. Having been a self-employed health coach previously, I knew my next step would involve the ICF as opposed to a certification offered via an individual or higher education. Beverly led me through her certification program in 2020, and I have remained connected with her community since I graduated. There were opportunities for learning, growth, collaboration, peer coaching and more under her program. Since then, I have written blogs and delivered presentations for her group of holistic coaches from all across the globe. She is very collaborative and inviting in her approach. Even more powerfully, she attracts a wide variety of professionals- from higher education to entrepreneurs to government employees. The benefits of learning from this incredible cross-section of folks cannot be overstated. In 2023, I coached privately with Beverly. Never have I felt more seen and acknowledged. This is despite having worked with many coaches over the course of the last decade! She truly demonstrates the best of what this industry strives to be, and I am proud to have been mentored by her. If you are considering adding coaching skills to your career, especially one that follows internationally recognized standards, I highly recommend the HCTI. The program was value-packed, paced appropriately for someone working full-time hours, and led to many rich partnerships. If you have an opportunity to coach privately with Beverly, you will receive an experience that will enrich both your personal and professional life.

Attended a program last year and I am returning for more! Beverly’s compassionate leadership and power of example create an optimal environment for learning how to coach the whole person in a safe and gentle way. I can truly recommend this academy for anyone looking to be a coach, facilitate self-transformation and cultivate a whole new way of being and communicating.
