Nurses are perfectly suited to help individuals through a body, mind, & spirit approach to mental health issues, health promotion, general support, and empowerment. 

Empower clients so they can decrease stress, create goals, build resilience, and implement effective coping strategies. Master empathetic listening and therapeutic communication skills. Help clients meet their goals for mind, body, and spirit wellness. Feel aligned with your work while bringing your passion for nursing to a whole new level by starting your journey today!

You will focus on listening to your clients, supporting them, providing them with education and empowering them to make changes and implement healthy & effective coping strategies. This course will provide a foundation in mental wellness that you can combine with your nursing experience, so that you can connect with your clients and help them achieve their goals.
