DKS Institute for Holistic Wellness
Advanced, Education-Based Practitioner Training for New and Seasoned Professionals
Become the Holistic Family Wellness Practitioner You Were Meant to Be!
The landscape of health and wellness is changing.
Across conventional and integrative fields, many professionals are feeling the same tension. Burnout. Ethical discomfort. Outdated frameworks. A growing awareness that families need education, clarity, and lifestyle-based support, not more confusion or fear-based models.
At the same time, a new wave of women and mothers are stepping forward, called to support others through holistic wellness education but unsure where to begin safely, legally, and responsibly.
The DKS Institute for Holistic Wellness was created to serve both.
We are an education-based, professionally accredited institute providing structured wellness education and support training for women, children, and families worldwide.
Our programs are designed to complement existing professional backgrounds while also offering a clear, ethical entry point for those just starting their practitioner journey.
Graduates of the program are eligible to apply for board certification as a Holistic Health Practitioner upon completion and fulfillment of board requirements.
Who This Program Is For:
One of the most common misconceptions about holistic practitioner training is that it is either entry-level only or exclusively for career-changers.
The DKS Practitioner Program is neither.
It was intentionally designed to support a wide range of backgrounds, including seasoned professionals who want Medical Medium–aligned education, as well as women and mothers who are newly stepping into this work.
We Have Trained and Supported Participants From These Backgrounds
- Medical Doctors and Doctors of Osteopathy
- Registered Nurses
- Midwives and Birth Professionals
- Doulas
- Lactation Consultants and IBCLCs
- Physical Therapists
- Occupational Therapists
- Speech-Language Pathologists
- Eye Doctors including Optometrists and Ophthalmology-trained professionals
- Licensed and non-licensed wellness practitioners
- Health coaches, fitness professionals, and holistic educators
- Mothers and women with lived healing experience seeking a safe, structured path forward
Whether you are expanding an existing clinical or professional role, or building a new education-based wellness practice from the ground up, this training meets you where you are.
Not Entry Level. Not Medical Training. Purposefully Educational.
This program is often described as foundational in structure and advanced in depth.
For experienced practitioners, it fills critical gaps that many conventional and integrative programs leave unaddressed:
- Clear, legally aligned scope of practice
- Ethical communication frameworks
- Lifestyle-based wellness education without diagnosing or prescribing
- Medical Medium–inspired principles taught responsibly and non-medically
- Real-world application through guided educational case studies
For newer students, it provides something equally important:
- Structure instead of overwhelm
- Language instead of fear
- Confidence instead of guessing
- A protected, professional pathway into wellness education
This does not replace licensure or clinical practice. It is a comprehensive wellness education program designed to coexist alongside a wide range of professional roles.
Medical Medium–Aligned, Education-Based, and Ethically Taught
The DKS curriculum is rooted in principles inspired by the teachings of Anthony William, presented through an educational and lifestyle-based lens.
Students learn how to:
- Translate complex wellness concepts into accessible education
- Support women, children, and families through nutrition, lifestyle, and environmental wellness principles
- Use safe, non-diagnostic language aligned with a wellness education scope
- Hold supportive space without practicing medicine or therapy
- Understand root-cause perspectives without attributing blame or pathology
All content is taught within a clearly defined non-medical scope of practice, emphasizing responsibility, clarity, and respect for each individual’s healing journey.
Learn Through Real Educational Case Studies
A distinguishing feature of the DKS Practitioner Program is its emphasis on case-based learning.
Participants submit educational case studies for learning and discussion.
These are not medical cases, diagnoses, or treatment plans.
Instead, they are structured educational scenarios designed to help students:
- Practice ethical thinking and communication
- Apply the DKS Framework to complex, real-life situations
- Strengthen confidence in client education and guidance
- Learn from diverse family wellness experiences
Teaching Calls and Advanced Educational Intensives
Beyond the core curriculum, students participate in Teaching Calls led by Dr. Kimberly.

Scope, Legal, and Ethics Are Central, Not an Afterthought
Many wellness programs gloss over legal and ethical considerations, leaving practitioners vulnerable.
At DKS Institute for Holistic Wellness, scope, legal clarity, and ethics are foundational.
- Clear definition of an education-based wellness role
- Guidance on appropriate language and communication
- Boundaries that protect both practitioner and client
- Professional standards aligned with board eligibility requirements
- Education on how to ethically integrate this work alongside existing licenses
