I have been a teacher of a variety of health training programs in my working life, and I know just how much time, effort, knowledge, understanding, and skill it takes to develop teaching materials and present them in a way that will inspire students to learn. IPE does this brilliantly. I have learned so much on this training program, and I’ve grown emotionally and spiritually. The way I work with clients is most definitely enriched, and I feel more and more fulfilled as I integrate my new learning.

I came to this training as a practicing psychotherapist and someone who has worked in the field of health and care since age 16. That was a long time ago, as I'm now 70.

When I first heard of Marc David and the Institute for the Psychology of Eating, I was very excited. I never even knew such an organization existed. I listened to Marc’s introductions to the Institute and looked at some of the materials available. I knew that The Mind Body Eating Coach Certification Training was something unique and something I had been searching for.

Why was this the program for me?

As a therapist, issues of weight and body image had always interested me. I'd had my own struggles of this nature and knew the journey a little. I've had a long time interest in nutrition, and a belief that good nutrition is part of the road to good mental health. I've had a forever-belief that body and mind are inextricably linked. And last, but not least – for a long time, I had been striving to integrate a spiritual dimension to the work I do.

Even though everything I wanted was contained in this course, I hesitated to enroll. Why? Because I wasn't confident that I had sufficient tech skills to do a substantial online course. Well, I really didn't need to worry about that. Student services at IPE are amazing, and answered any and all of my cries for help really quickly. Enrolling was efficient and hassle-free.

The journey has been incredible. I have been a teacher of a variety of health training programs in my working life, and I know just how much time, effort, knowledge, understanding, and skill it takes to develop teaching materials and present them in a way that will inspire students to learn. IPE does this brilliantly. I have learned so much on this training program, and I’ve grown emotionally and spiritually. The way I work with clients is most definitely enriched, and I feel more and more fulfilled as I integrate my new learning.

I would recommend The Mind Body Eating Coach Certification Training to anyone who wants to work in one of the most challenging areas of health in the world today, and who wants to take a unique and compassionate approach to their work.
