Trauma-Informed. Emotionally Intelligent. Faith-Integrated.

A Mental Health & Wellness Coaching Certification for Ethical, Whole-Person Care.

The demand for mental health support is growing, but not everyone is called to become a therapist. This certification is designed for helpers, leaders, ministers, and coaches who want to support emotional wellness without crossing clinical or ethical lines.

Soul Healing University's Mental Health & Wellness Coaching Certification equips you with the skills, framework, and confidence to coach individuals toward emotional awareness, regulation, resilience, and purpose while knowing when and how to refer to licensed professionals.

Cohort Two begins on June 26th, 2026, and lasts for 8 weeks!

Who This Program Is For

This certification was intentionally created for:
    •    Faith leaders & ministry workers supporting people through emotional pain, burnout, and life transitions
    •    Life coaches who want stronger clinical grounding without becoming therapists
    •    Mental health paraprofessionals and peer support workers
    •    Mentors, helpers, and advocates who regularly walk alongside others
    •    Coaches who want to work ethically, responsibly, and within clear scope-of-practice boundaries

What Makes This Certification Different

This is not a generic coaching program. It is a trauma-informed, emotionally intelligent, faith-integrated approach to mental health coaching developed and taught by a doctoral-level licensed professional counselor with over 17 years of clinical and leadership experience. We have already successfully completed cohort one using this same framework!

You will learn how to:
    •    Understand emotional and behavioral patterns through a trauma-aware lens
    •    Support clients in building emotional regulation, insight, and resilience
    •    Integrate faith and spirituality without spiritual bypassing or harm
    •    Hold space ethically for complex emotional stories
    •    Recognize red flags and refer appropriately to licensed clinicians
    •    Coach with confidence, clarity, and integrity

This program prioritizes safety, self-awareness, and sustainability for both you and the people you serve.
