Creative Grief Coaching Certification Program
Certified & Experienced Coaches Cath Duncan and Kara LC Jones bring you a brand new Creative Grief Studio program at GriefCoachingCertification.com!
If you are a professional coach looking for certification in this field, then the 12 Module program is for you.
If you are a helping professional in any other field, then the 11 Module content-only version of the program might be your fit.
See a video sharing more, details of the program, and the online applicationon the Studio site!
Program runs February offering morning meetings and again in September offering evening meetings. Please feel free to fill out the application any time and indicate on it which session you want to take.
Join us for a live event!
We often do live events via Creative Grief Coaching Studio
or as part of my Vashon Island practice. We are in the process of relocating back to the island in Spring 2013. Once we are settled back there again, I'll update this space with upcoming events!
