An integrative health program designed for personal and professional growth

This certificate offers opportunities to enhance your well-being and positively influence others across various areas of your life. The curriculum emphasizes whole-person health — including physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being — while examining environmental influences on overall wellness.

For personal growth, you’ll gain strategies to prioritize self-care, reduce burnout and manage compassion fatigue. By focusing on your well-being, you’ll be better prepared to support clients, loved ones and others who rely on you.

The knowledge you gain can support a transition into health and wellness careers and help you foster resilience in others. You’ll also learn to apply mindfulness practices and stress management strategies to expand your impact in helping professions, such as social work, nursing and behavioral health.

What you’ll learn

Coursework explores assessment and intervention in clinical settings, working effectively with multicultural populations and analyzing how social determinants affect health outcomes. You’ll study the neuroscience foundations of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MSBR). An embedded eight-week course helps you build a personal mindfulness practice grounded in MBSR principles.

Will my certificate say "online"?

No, Arizona State University’s certificates and diplomas don’t specify whether you earn them online or in person. All certificates, diplomas and transcripts simply say “Arizona State University.”

Courses in stress management, mindfulness and more

This certificate includes two core courses and three electives, offering flexibility to align your studies with your personal and professional goals while providing insight into integrative health. You’ll develop a personal mindfulness practice as you explore topics such as holistic therapies, quality of life enhancement and the psychology of mindfulness.

The eight-week mindfulness training course culminates in a certificate of completion in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction and makes you eligible to apply for national certification. You’ll complete the full MBSR program, taught by a certified instructor and based on the curriculum founded by Jon Kabat-Zinn, as part of your graded assignments.

Develop practices applicable to all careers

In this certificate program, you’ll gain skills that apply to behavioral health, health and wellness coaching, health care, social work, sports training and other industries. These skills transfer across a wide range of professional environments and support your personal growth by helping you and those you work with thrive in all areas of life. You can apply what you learn in settings including:
