Three structured residency programs — each designed for a distinct stage of your practitioner journey. Find where you are, and we'll take you where you want to go.
You finished your program. You have the knowledge. But the business side — finding clients, setting up systems, defining your scope — feels overwhelming. LAUNCH closes that gap.
This residency gives you everything your certification didn't: real practice structure, client intake systems, business fundamentals, and the mentorship to take your first steps without second-guessing yourself.
Define your scope of practice, set your professional foundations, and meet your cohort.
Structure your practice legally, set pricing, and build your client intake systems from scratch.
Learn to find, attract, and sign your first paying clients using proven outreach strategies.
Complete your residency with a working practice and a clear path into GROW if you choose.
“I finally understood my scope of practice and knew exactly what to say when someone asked what I do. The confidence shift after LAUNCH was immediate.”
LAUNCH graduates are eligible to progress directly into the GROW residency — continuing their journey with a stronger foundation and a proven track record.
You're seeing clients — but you want more. More confidence in the room. More consistency in your caseload. The credentials that set you apart. GROW delivers all of it through structured functional nutrition training, live mentoring, and the clinical tools to work at a professional level.
Three live mentoring sessions per week. Systems-based case work. BCHN® credential preparation. And an optional Foundations of Herbalism add-on to expand your scope.
Build systems-based functional nutrition reasoning through structured case work and curriculum.
Weekly sessions with expert mentors covering case review, clinical questions, and career strategy.
Structured preparation for the Board for Certification of Nutrition Specialists exam.
Optimize your LinkedIn, resume, and outreach — then graduate with a full, confident caseload.
“Before Holistic Consulting I had a nutrition degree and zero clients. Six months into GROW I had a full caseload, a LinkedIn profile that actually works, and passed my BCHN® Exam on my first attempt.”
You've built your practice. Now it's time to go deeper. The MASTER residency is for practitioners ready to specialize in clinical herbalism and functional testing — and position themselves as recognized experts in integrative health.
Publish case studies. Work with field experts. Earn a reputation that makes you the first call when practitioners need a specialist.
Complete a rigorous clinical herbalism curriculum with live expert sessions and case supervision.
Learn to order, interpret, and apply advanced functional labs in clinical practice.
Build your authority: publish case studies, engage field experts, and differentiate your brand.
Graduate with specialist credentials, published work, and an elite professional profile.
"The clinical herbalism training differentiated my practice in a way no other program could. I'm now publishing case studies and speaking at integrative health events."
MASTER is designed for GROW graduates or practitioners with equivalent clinical experience. Not sure if you qualify? Book a discovery call and we'll assess together.

For LAUNCH, you need a nutrition, health coaching, or integrative health certification — no client experience required. GROW is designed for practitioners already seeing clients. MASTER requires GROW graduation or equivalent clinical background.
LAUNCH is designed for practitioners with busy schedules and takes approximately 4–6 hours per week. GROW, with its three weekly live mentoring sessions, typically requires 8–10 hours per week. MASTER varies by specialization track. Exact time commitments are confirmed during your discovery call.
GROW includes full preparation for the BCHN® (Board Certified in Holistic Nutrition) credential exam. MASTER graduates receive a clinical herbalism specialization designation from Holistic Consulting. We will confirm all credential specifics during your discovery call as requirements may vary.
Yes. GROW is designed for practitioners already seeing clients — LAUNCH completion is not a prerequisite. If you're uncertain whether GROW or LAUNCH is the right fit, our discovery call will help you self-select confidently.
Yes — all live mentoring sessions in GROW are recorded and available in the member portal. We do encourage attending live when possible, as the interactive case discussions and real-time Q&A are a significant part of the learning experience.
A residency is structured, supervised clinical training — not passive content consumption. You apply knowledge in real practice settings, receive expert mentorship, work through live case studies, and develop the career infrastructure to actually build a practice. School teaches you what to know. A residency teaches you how to practice.
Yes, payment plans are available for all three programs. Pricing details and payment options are discussed during your free discovery call. There are no contracts — we want you to enroll because the program is the right fit, not because you're locked in.
MASTER graduates join the HC alumni network with ongoing access to resources, peer support, and speaking and publication opportunities. Many graduates go on to present at integrative health events, consult for other practitioners, or establish recognized specialist practices in their field.
