YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Created & Led by
Dr. Amy Robbins
Amy didn't create this course from theory. She built it from the gap she lived inside, a licensed clinical psychologist who had a spiritual awakening and found herself completely alone in navigating it professionally.
Nearly 20 years in private practice, a globally ranked podcast on life and death, and years of working with clients whose spiritual experiences shaped their healing, all of it is woven into every session of this curriculum.
She created the course she needed when she needed it most. And she built it for you.

IS THIS COURSE FOR YOU?
Built for Clinicians Who FEEL Something Is Missing
Your clients are coming to you with experiences that fall outside your clinical training, and you feel the gap. A client who had a near-death experience. Someone who senses the presence of a loved one who has died. A person whose grief has taken on a deeply spiritual dimension that you don't know how to hold.
This course gives you the framework, the language, and the ethical grounding to meet them there without abandoning your clinical integrity.
