What is Holistic Nursing?

What is Holistic Nurse Coaching?

What is Holistic Nurse Consulting?

NURSE CONSULTING SHOULD BE HOLISTIC

A Holistic Nurse Consultant and a General Nurse Consultant differ in their approach, philosophy, and areas of expertise. Holistic Nurse Consultants emphasize a holistic approach to healthcare, focusing on the whole person and integrating complementary therapies, while General Nurse Consultants offer expertise in general nursing care across various specialties without a specific focus on holistic principles. The choice between these roles depends on an individual's training, interests, and career objectives within the nursing field.

We will explore this concept in much more detail as we progress through the program, with a dedicated class in addition to a comprehensive additional Self-Study Module

I’m not sure how this will help me in my personal life.

Nurses who have participated in TheCIINDE's Comprehensive Holistic Nurse, Nurse Coach, and Consultant Certificate Program have shared profound transformations in both their personal and professional lives. Many report a fundamental shift in their mindset, self-awareness, and relationship with self-care, leading to lasting changes in how they show up for themselves and their clients.

At the heart of this program is a six-step transformative process, guiding nurses through deep personal exploration, intentional self-care practices, and professional integration. A dedicated self-care assignment reinforces this journey, ensuring that participants embody the holistic principles they will later apply in practice.  During the first quarter of the program, the focus is entirely on YOU—the human behind the nurse. This phase prioritizes self-reflection, personal growth, and healing, empowering nurses to cultivate resilience, set meaningful intentions, and integrate sustainable self-care habits before transitioning into client-centered coaching.  

By experiencing this transformation firsthand, nurses emerge not only as skilled practitioners but as embodied leaders in holistic nursing and coaching, ready to guide others with authenticity, empathy, and a deep-rooted commitment to well-being.

I’m not sure if this will help my professional life.

More than 300 nurses have embarked on this transformative journey with us, and our graduates are now excelling across diverse areas of nursing practice. This program doesn't just enhance clinical skills—it reshapes how nurses engage with their profession, equipping them with the tools, confidence, and self-awareness to create meaningful impact in their careers and communities.

✅ Nurse Leaders, Managers, & Educators – Influencing policy, culture, and professional development within healthcare organizations, championing nurse-led, person-centered care models that transform how nursing is practiced and perceived.  

This program is more than a certificate program—it's a paradigm shift that redefines what’s possible in nursing. By prioritizing self-care, resilience, and evidence-informed holistic approaches, our graduates step into their roles with greater clarity, purpose, and confidence. Whether you choose to start your own practice, integrate coaching into bedside care, or influence systemic change, you’ll be prepared to lead, innovate, and transform healthcare in ways you never imagined possible.

Is this a credible certificate that is recognized by (INSERT ORGANIZATION OF CHOICE).

TheCIINDE© Complementary Holistic Nurse, Nurse Coach & Consultant Certificate program at The Canadian Institute of Integrative Nursing Development & Education (TheCIINDE)© is internationally recognized and holds two very distinct accreditations.  We are accredited by the Canadian Nurses Association (CNA), ensuring our program meets rigorous Canadian standards for nursing education. We are also an ANCC Accredited Provider, meaning our continuing education offerings meet the highest standards set by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC). Our program is endorsed by the Canadian Holistic Nurses Association (CHNA) and Watson Caring Science Institute (WCSI), further reinforcing our credibility and professional standing. Additionally, our students are taught how to actively advocate for the recognition of Holistic Nursing, Nurse Coaching and Nurse Consulting within their respective regulatory bodies. One of our core assignments involves engaging directly with regulatory organizations to foster awareness and ensure alignment with professional nursing standards.

The thought of taking a course makes me nervous that it will be like nursing school...

We completely understand that the thought of taking a course might bring back memories of nursing school—those long hours, rigid expectations, and the pressure to perform. But let us assure you: this is not nursing school.  At The Canadian Institute of Integrative Nursing Development & Education (TheCIINDE)©, we recognize that you are not students in the traditional sense—you are professional nurses and adult learners with your own lived experiences, expertise, and wisdom.

Much like reviving the heART of nursing, our program is about teaching and showing up in a different way than you may be used to. We are here to facilitate, support, and walk alongside you as you explore a new approach to nursing—one rooted in presence, transformation, and healing.  Just like in coaching, our role is not to dictate but to guide and empower you as you step into your own way of practicing.

Yes, there are criteria to meet in order to obtain your certification, but how you navigate this journey is entirely up to you. You have the flexibility to learn in a way that works best for you, with a supportive community and mentorship along the way.  So if you're feeling hesitant, know this: this is not about adding more stress to your life—this is about re-connecting with your purpose, your passion, and the kind of nursing you’ve always wanted to practice. And we will be here, every step of the way.  Let us know how we can support you in getting started! 💙

What if I am only interested in one of following: Holistic Nurse; Nurse Coach; OR, a Nurse Consultant? Would I still need to take the entire CIINDE-Certified Holistic Nurse, Nurse Coach & Consultant Certificate Program?

Although these are 3 distinct specialties, and you can choose to take the Consultant Course separately, it has been our experience that Nurse coaching is truly an integral part of being a holistic nurse and using a holistic approach. The consultant course was added as a component of the program because it addresses a very important part of nursing practice, that being around the education and resources that we provide our clients to support them in achieving their goals.
