Become an Avno Holistic Health Coach

It is important to develop your ability to be present, create authentic relationships, park your own issues and maintain your integrity (no matter what your client brings up). This ability increases dramatically throughout the training and is essential, not only to create a good rapport with your client, but also because a coach’s/therapists personal limitations often limits the client’s possibility for development.
