Yes. Upon completion, you will receive an IPHM-accredited certification. The International Practitioners of Holistic Medicine (IPHM) is a globally recognised accreditation body, with members and recognition spanning the UK, Europe, North America, Australia, and beyond. This means your certification carries professional credibility wherever you choose to take your work in the world.

Not at all. This training meets you exactly where you are. All students read Wild Power by Alexandra Pope & Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer before the program begins, putting everyone on the same foundation. I have had women brand new to cyclical living, all the way through to teachers of this work that wanted to gain more tools and facilitation training.  

Not exactly. The teachings are centered on the menstrual cycle but a lot of what we explore is the connection to the female body intelligence and how to care for the female body with hormones & nervous system in mind. 

So whether you're postpartum, perimenopausal, past menopause, or your bleed comes & goes unpredictably, you are welcome here.

If you are not sure, I invite you to hop on a call with me to explore together.

Approximately 20 hours - calls every other weekend, bi-weekly integration practices, and self-study. All sessions are recorded and downloadable for lifetime access.
