You have a calling in your heart to bring your gifts and your Mission out in a big way on the Planet. I know this is the case because otherwise you wouldn't have been guided and drawn to read this page. Because I know this, I want you to imagine this for a moment:
Close your eyes and sit with this for a minute.
How would achieving this make a difference in your life? In the life of those close to you? In the lives of your Clients?
Let me first start with my own story because it can start to explain how things got SO off track with Holistic Practitioners building the thriving Practices they were truly destined to build.
Years ago I was working as a Therapist in a clinic that was like a sweat-shop. I don't mean to be dramatic but we were required to see about 25+ clients a week on top of endless paperwork. My Spirit was slowly withering and I didn't know where to turn. (Have you ever felt that way—it's awful!)
I ended up leaving that job and thought I had broken free of the system to just find myself in ANOTHER agency job that was stressful like the other one. Even more confused and disheartened I remember taking a walk with my friend Cheryl and expressed my feeling of hopelessness to her. She said, "Why don't you start a Holistic Practice doing the work that you truly love?"
It was truly what I wanted to do but I was SO scared because over the years when I had seen other Holistic Practitioners in the training programs I was in start private practices—NO ONE seemed to be creating successful Practices. I had no role models for success and it scared me. Yet—I felt my back was against the wall and there were no other options but to LEAP.
But I knew I needed to LEAP and do it differently than they did and crack the code on why SO many Holistic Practitioners with amazing gifts to share were not getting their Practices off the ground. What I learned over the years that allowed me to create a 6-Figure Holistic Psychotherapy Practice in Green Bay, WI astounded me. It also allowed me to turn around and use the SAME system to create a 2nd Multi-6-Figure business, The Global Association of Holistic Psychotherapy. I discovered 4 Key Barriers that no one has been taking about—until now.
It is now the same information I share in my fool-proof 7 Step-System to help other Holistic Business owners create successful, thriving 6-Figure Practices.
Yes there is A LOT of marketing information out there but not marketing informationthat is in alignment with connecting with your clients in a deeply affirming and intimate way. That is why SO many Holistic Therapists, Healers and Coaches RUN from learning about Marketing because what traditional Marketing teaches just turns them off—understandably so. (I know I felt this way) I translated the marketing knowledge I learned over years of study to what would be more congruent for Holistic Values AND what works best in Holistic Practices.
Many Holistic Practitioners have a deep fear of being visible and having LOTS of people knowing the deeply spiritual and transformative work that they do. The trouble with this is that when they keep themselves invisible the ideal clients are that are meant to be working with them aren't able to find them. Does this sound familiar to you? Then they feel that what they are doing isn't truly wanted because the RIGHT clients aren't finding them—the clients that are wanting and could benefit most from the work that they do.
Over the years from my own journey, because I had BIG time visibility issues (surprise) I have been able to teach techniques and methods to become Safely, Joyfully VISIBLE. Here is a powerful message I teach "Your true safety comes in your full Visibility" I will show you how to do this at the Workshop.
When you really shine your light the clients you are meant to be working with find you. Remember this quote—Pay attention to the bolded sentences:
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. You're playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
—Marianne Williamson
Many Holistic Practitioners struggle with growing their Practice because they don't fully see, embrace and act from the powerful Spiritual beings that they are. They don't fully see their unique gifts and allow those to shine brightly to help the hundreds and hundreds of people they are meant to help. They have seen power used in ways that were hurtful to others and don't want any part of it—so unconsciously they can block a HEALTHY form of expressing their power in the world—the power to be who they are FULL OUT AND to impact positive change on the Planet by developing their businesses to their FULLEST power and positive expression.
This is HUGE. Many Holistic Practitioners have mixed feelings about making a lot of money in their Practice. They have seen some people with a lot of money use it destructively—hurting other people and the Planet and don't want any part of it. Consequently they struggle with tapping into the natural flow of abundance that is meant for them by sharing their gifts. Also there is a belief pattern in the collective consciousness that Holistic Practitioners can get pulled into which states "You cannot be Spiritual and Wealthy"—the two are at odds. The truth is for Holistic Practitioners creating wealth IS part of their Spiritual Path. What better hands for wealth to be in than the hands of heart-centered, global minded Holistic Practitioners! I have developed a Spiritual Wealth Consciousness System™ to help Holistic Practitioners break free of these limiting belief patterns once and for all! I will be sharing this during the Coaching Program.
Fast forward to today and I was SO inspired by my own success and being contacted by Therapists, Healers and Coaches around the world that wanted to create a successful Holistic Practice just like mine that launched the Global Association of Holistic Psychotherapy in June 2010. Through our Membership Program, Holistic Business Coaching Programs and Certification Programs we are helping beautiful Holistic Practitioners (see a handful of them in the picture below) all over the world create AMAZING, thriving 6-Figure Holistic Practices!

P.S. - I hope you'll register for the Holistic Business Breakthrough Coaching Program so that I can PERSONALLY show you how to build your Holistic Practice quickly, easily and simply!
Before I started working with Shelley I didn't have a clear direction for my Holistic Business. I was very passionate about the Holistic Methods I was using but I didn't know how to put that together into a solid, thriving Holistic Business. When I met Shelley at a conference I knew right away I wanted to work with her. I signed up for her GAHP Holistic Psychotherapy and Coaching Certification Program. I had SO many amazing results from that program that I decided to sign up for her year long Holistic Visionary Program. Things have moved so quickly I don't even recognize my life or myself; things have changed so dramatically in a fairly short amount of time!
Here is what I have accomplished from my work with Shelley:
Things keep expanding and growing for me. Now I am in the Level 3 Certification course experiencing an even deeper level of growth with Breathwork. I am so blessed to have Shelley in my life. Thank you!!

I was in the process of leaving a group practice because my experience was not what I wanted it to be. I was burned out with very little energy left to enjoy my life. I knew that I wanted to be working with my ideal clients, sharing my passion for cultivating healthy love relationships, and feeling energized and fulfilled by my work. I was so ready and willing to do whatever it would take to make a BIG shift in my life, but I didn't know where to really start or how to build the momentum toward a practice that I could sustain. I didn't wholeheartedly believe that I could create the practice that I desired and longed for.
I found the Global Association for Holistic Psychotherapy and Coaching during a late night internet search for a coaching program that would help me take the leap. Everything Shelley had to say spoke to me. I had a good feeling inside and a spark of excitement ignited! I spoke with Shelley to confirm that this was a great opportunity for me and before I knew it I signed up! I have been in alignment with my Spirit and trust in the support of this program. I have been able to build momentum in such a short time.
Here is what I have accomplished so far after just 6 weeks of being in the Program:
It has been so much fun, I have energy to live my life to the fullest and I wholeheartedly believe that I can create above and beyond what I had originally imagined!

Before I started working with Shelley I was working very hard but not making much progress bringing my Life Mission into focus. I had 4 web-sites and was a bit scattered and confused as to how to pull all of my work together in a cohesive, focused voice with a web-site that reflected my new direction. I joined Shelley's 90 Day Holistic Biz Coaching Program which helped me begin to hone in on my Ideal Client, the focus of my business and really look at the deeper ways I was holding myself back with my services, classes and pricing.
I knew from working in that Program that I wanted to Coach with Shelley in her Holistic Leader Program. I spoke with her and found out the details for the Program. When she shared the investment amount for the Program I took a big gulp because it was a BIG stretch for me to pay~ but I knew she was the right person to help me get to where I wanted to go with my Business.
Once I started the Program I was on the fast track.
I was able to recently launch my Web-site and announce my Certification Program.
What has happened since than has been truly magical. I have signed on 6 of my Ideal Clients and I expect there will be many more. The icing on the cake was a woman whom I met at an expo I recently participated in. She sent me an email letting me know she wants to talk about whether she would be a good candidate for my certification training and believe me she would be!! All of this has happened in only 4 months of working with Shelley. I know this is just the beginning and I feel truly blessed that the impact I wanted to make when I came to the Planet is finally happening!!
My heart is so full of happiness and joy I feel truly blessed. I thank Shelley for coming into my life and sharing her loving spirit with me. I know I could not have done this without her. I want to share my joy with others at what a wonderful marketing, business, holistic psychotherapist Shelley is. Thank you so much Shelley :)

I have known for a long time that I have a big Mission on the Planet, but I was hiding out. I was so busy with my traditional practice and I had no idea to get from where I was to my big Vision.
I prayed for support and then Shelley's email landed in my Inbox. At first I avoided the Events she was announcing. Almost like my Spirit knew if I started, there would be no turning back. I was getting ready.
Finally when I connected with Shelley, I jumped in with both feet. I signed up for her highest level Coaching Program and also her Certification Program. I went for the full immersion.
I have grown and expanded in ways that are hard to put Into words. I have been through the deepest kind of Transformation over the last year that I have ever been through in my life.
I am now lined up with my Soul's Mission. I have an amazing website that reflects who I really am and what I am here to do. I have made the shift in my practice to working more from a more holistic, spiritually based way and my clients are making huge shifts.
I avoided and was overwhelmed by the technical aspect of building my business on-line initially. I have come a LONG way with Shelley's support. I am active now on Social Media and I now am able to set up my own Facebook Ads on my own (huge!) I have doubled my Facebook Likes in the last 2 weeks! I am doing things I never in a million years would have imagined I would do!
I am writing articles regularly for a Holistic publication and I am getting a GREAT response from people. I am regularly leading Transformational Workshops and will be launching my first on-line Coaching Program after the first of the year.
Working with Shelley is like coming home to yourself. Shelley has loving and compassionate energy about her that helps one to open up to one's own unique energetic "stamp" - unique passion and gifts ready to be shared with the world!
Shelley is accepting and loving but also is able to mirror back one's soul's mission for the world.
The groups that are part of Shelley's programs are uplifting, accepting and inviting. I am so grateful for Shelley and all members of the GAHP for the common soul efforts to service the world as well as each soul's individuality within that.
Shelley gives effort and support that is immeasurable! The benefits of working with her and members of the GAHP are priceless!!!
I am so grateful for Shelley and the GAHP!!!

Before signing up for the Holistic Visionary Program I didn't have a business – I had done a coaching course in 2007/8 but after that nothing –no clients that paid and the ones I did have were free. They were getting amazing results but I didn't have the confidence in my abilities to step up and charge any fee. I was toying with getting a website together but that wasn't going anywhere fast. It was 4 years later and there was no website. In a nutshell – it wasn't happening despite my best efforts.
When I signed up I really wanted to be held accountable to really manifest my big Vision. I wasted so much time cobbling together my own course from a variety of sources because I convinced myself it would be more cost effective but I realized I wasn't getting anywhere.
When I signed up I really wanted to be held accountable to really manifest my big Vision. I was ready to invest in myself and I finally felt like I found the right Coach for me. The Holistic Visionary Program brought everything I need to finally focus and grow my business in one place with a very high level of support. The best parts are the weekly calls, Friday Check-ins and the VIP days which created turbo charged leaps of progress for me. I was FINALLY creating my BIG VISION!
Here is what else I love about the Program:
My Results from being in the Program:
Melody Akena
The Dare to Be Coach
Within the first few weeks of working with Shelley, things just seemed to fall into place. In less than a month, I acquired 4 new full fee weekly clients, 3 new full fee biweekly clients, plus several other referrals and inquiries that are still in process. My mouth is agape even as I write this!
One of the big reasons I was drawn to Shelley was epitomized in the way I used to introduce myself - "I'm a existential/transpersonal psychotherapist; Shaman and Energy Healer; and I teach Chi Gung, Tai Chi, Taoist Breathing, Yoga and meditation, and the Feldenkrais Method". Well, that's quite a mouthful, usually confused people, and, frankly, made me feel a bit all over the place.
I always knew that all these modalities, and the 25+ years of training and study I put into them, were very important and central to what I do. BUT - I was at an absolute stalemate with how to market myself and I was hiding behind others for years. I knew in my Heart I had so much to give but was feeling almost completely defeated as to how to bring myself forward into the world.
I was drawn to Shelley by her outlook and emphasis on being holistic as well as very spiritually open. What really sold me on working with her, though, was her quality of presence the moment we spoke. I could tell she was with me vs. an agenda - something that was my usual experience with business coaches. I felt like I finally found one who got me and thus would have the ability to help bring out my work in an authentic way.
Within the first few weeks of working with Shelley, things just seemed to fall into place. It was more "energetic" than intellectual. I felt far more clear than I ever have on how to focus my business. I experienced deep relief from the support and knowing that it would bring tangible results. And the absolute most remarkable thing was that my business began to see an enormous shift and growth before any of my strategies were made public. In less than a month, I acquired 4 new full fee weekly clients, 3 new full fee biweekly clients, plus several other referrals and inquiries that are still in process. So, literally, the new business was already being pulled in by the shift in energy. My mouth is agape even as I write this.
I'm still only in the second month of the Holistic Leader year long program. I can't wait to see what my testimonial will say in a few more months :)
With Love.

The timing of me taking the 90-day Holistic Business Breakthrough Coaching Program couldn't have been more perfect. It was exactly what I needed after completing my Certification. I gained so much through the process. Everything seems to be coming together now. I am now absolutely clear on my mission and it has helped me to "keep it simple" and it laid the foundation for my elevator speech. It was the missing piece for me as I was struggling with how to "tell my story" and now when I tell people my condensed version of my mission, they immediately want more. It has made me more excited and helped me overcome my fears along the way.
I absolutely love the ideal client work because I used to just take on clients because I needed the money. I have learned to set boundaries and be up front with people. What is interesting is I have even told people that they aren't my ideal client and it is almost making them work to be my ideal client because they "want" to be now. Getting clear on my elevator speech was so powerful. When I ran my speech past a friend of mine who would be an ideal client she said "Oh my God, that is exactly what I need!".
This program totally paved the way for things to really happen. We are in the process of producing a mini-documentary on my story and the video we have is going to provide endless amounts of content that can be used. It also forced me to write my script for my first tele-seminar and I will be practicing with Audio Acrobat this week and then the plan is to have it as part of my website launch and then available for download. I finished my "free assessment" offer and am almost done with my free ebook that I will be offering as well.
I am very happy that I had this program because it forced me to work through things in a systematic way. I know that when my website launches it is going to be SIMPLY MARVELOUS!!! Thanks Shelley!

Imagine this happening; you're totally relaxed with your eyes closed and engaged in deep rhythmic belly breathing, you're listening to powerful penetrating music as you are tapping into a state of receiving, can you see it?” This is a small glimpse of what I experienced at the GAHP's Life Breakthrough Transformational Workshop. And, did I receive a breakthrough to say the least.
I entered the workshop with a clean slate of not knowing what I would receive in regards to some questions I had about the development and growth of my business, Meaningful Life Counseling and Coaching.
I came away with a wealth of clarity and information. I couldn't believe the huge transformation that happened for me. I FINALLY was able to see how all the different experiences on my Life Path now make sense and help me see how Spiritually destined I am to do this work. I now have rock solid confidence belief in myself and my Big Vision for my Holistic Business as I move forward!
Shelley is an amazing business coach who gently guides and effectively provides the space for rich transformations. I can't wait to see what is next. And on top of it the Workshop was a ton of fun too!

I've just completed the Holistic Leader Platinum Retreat with Shelley Riutta and one of the things I've really gotten out of this retreat is the BIGNESS of my mission in the world. I'm here to make an impact on the planet in a very unique, very special way - and I've been playing too small. I've been concerned over the years about visibility and whether or not I'm the right person to lead this movement. And what I've gotten out of this retreat is YES - I am the right person to lead this movement! And with Shelley's help and with the support of the amazing people in my GAHP mastermind group, I'm excited about moving forward! I am leaving this retreat with an open heart, an open mind, a plan, and I am going to lead a mission-inspired movement in the world - helping people connect with their divine purpose, step into their life story, and create their legacy!

I successfully lead my first Transformational Workshop, and therefore had my first paying clients!
I totally loved the training. I loved the 2-1/2 days of kick-off workshop and meeting all the other therapists and healers. It was so nice connecting with like-minded people!
I worked through a lot of false beliefs, particularly those related to visibility. I am just starting out in developing my Practice. Not having that fear of being visible anymore will help me tremendously in stepping out there and connecting with the clients who are meant to work with me. I also learned how to write bullets and titles for Workshops and I learned how to market a Transformational Workshop. I became more confident in working holistically and got more clarity about the direction I want to take my Practice.
I successfully lead my first Transformational Workshop, and therefore had my first paying clients!

I just wanted to share what happened this week. I had told Shelley that my goal was to get my yoga classes filled to 14 people. On Tuesday night, I had 15 show up and I only have space for 14. I gave up my yoga mat and moved to the center of the room. I taught with no mat and it was a great class. On Wednesday night, I had 14 show up and both classes have all committed in advance for next month. Last night I had to turn 4 people down for my restorative class. Today, I had a woman pay in advance for 6 breath sessions. Things are moving right along with my goals and I feel the energy of this group....yea!
Bobbi Silverstone, Serenity Yoga and Breathwork
Before I signed up for the Program I didn't have a business. I had an idea of what I wanted to do, but I kept postponing it for later because I had a full-time job in the corporate world. By the end of 2013 I made the resolution that I would take action to start building my business. I knew that I wanted to follow my calling, so I looked for a Holistic certification and started thinking on my vision, of how I wanted my business to serve and help others.
That's when I found Shelley. When I met Shelley I jumped in with both feet. I decided that I needed to invest in myself, so I registered for the Holistic Coaching Certification Programs, and also for the Holistic Leader Program. I signed up because I wanted to learn from someone that has walked the path in a successful way, and because I wanted to be held accountable to really be able to see my vision become a reality.
In just 3 months of being in the Programs I:
This program has brought everything I needed to focus and build my business from scratch. All of this with a continuous high level of support.
Here are a few of my accomplishments since I started working with Shelley, but I know there is so much more to come!
I love working with Shelley because she is very knowledgeable and compassionate. She has a gentle way of holding you accountable. I love the program because there is a sense of community and support among all members of the program that is truly uplifting and motivating. I love being in connected with heart-centered and like-minded people. I feel that I'm being more authentic, and that I have grown and expanded in ways that I would have never thought possible.
I'm so grateful for having Shelley in my life!!

Before I started working with Shelley as my holistic business coach, I was unfocused, and fear and doubt kept me from making any meaningful progress growing my holistic animal healing practice. With two degrees in business and marketing, I knew what I needed to do, but something was holding me back.
I was clear that I wanted to work with a holistic coach, and when I found the Global Association of Holistic Psychotherapists I was intrigued by Shelley and the programs she offers. What drew me in was that Shelley's services are focused on the unique needs of therapists, healers, coaches and holistic practitioners. I took the leap, trusting that I had gotten what I'd asked for, and signed up with the Holistic Business School almost immediately.
What I love most about working with Shelley is that:
Since working with Shelley the past six months I have:
What I have realized is that my mission and vision to help animals are big. In order to live this passion and fulfill my life's purpose, I must not only invest in myself, but I must invest in that purpose and those I am humbly here to serve. I am so grateful to have found Shelley and the GAHP because I now feel that with Shelley's support I have been able to lay a strong foundation and am on my way toward making my vision a reality.
