Genesis School of Natural Health

Turn your passion for herbalism & holistic health into a career!

Online Herbalist & Holistic Health Courses

Genesis school is dedicated to providing students with an education that prepares them to serve the public as natural and holistic health professionals. Accredited diploma courses include Clinical Master Herbalist, Holistic Health Professional, Traditional Doctor of Naturopathy, Holistic Aromatherapist, and many more.

A holistic and natural approach to health is essential for finding and correcting the root cause of symptoms. Our students learn how to use whole foods, herbal remedies, vitamins, minerals, and effective modalities to effectively help clients restore or maintain their health.

At Genesis we continually update the master herbalist program, holistic health certificate programs, and naturopathic curriculum to give students the most current scientific knowledge and assessments. This is done without eroding the proven historical use of herbs, naturopathy, and keen observation and listening skills. 

To prepare our students for the challenge of modern health issues we have developed a 4-Phase Learning System backed by carefully selected books, manuals, and study guides. Each phase of study builds on your body of knowledge – guided study that leads you down the path of understanding and the ability to apply the knowledge with success.

Advanced study manuals include: Lyme Disease & Co-Infections; Immune System Fundamentals & Autoimmune Disorders; Parasites of Human Interest; Vitamins, Minerals, & Supplements; Blood Chemistry; and Nutrition for Health. 

Case Studies are included with the Clinical Master Herbalist, Natural Health Consultant, and most of our holistic health diploma and certificate courses. Instead of hypothetical examples we use real client information. Each case study takes a full hour and includes reviewing the client’s symptom form and notes from conversations and questions asked during the first and second office visits.

“Real Time” is our online open discussion meeting held every 4-6 weeks – sometimes students have specific questions and sometimes we talk about a health challenge that a student or family member is facing.

Accreditation: Genesis School of Natural Health is professionally accredited by the AADP. Therefore, graduates may apply for board certifications with the American Association of Drugless Practitioners (AADP). 

Graduate Jennifer H.: “I have loved every minute of my time at Genesis. In fact, although I have taken the long road to finishing, I am sad that my time as a student at Genesis is over. The support of the administration has been top notch. The curriculum is broad and very engaging. I truly enjoyed every class that was given. Whether you are hoping to start a new career helping others with their natural journey, or just gaining information for your family’s future, Genesis is the place!”

WILL I BE A CERTIFIED OR LICENSED MASTER HERBALIST? There is currently no certifying agency or licensing board for herbalists in the United States. When schools say they offer a Certified Master Herbalist course or program it simply means they are going to give you a certificate after completion – all schools give their students a certificate/diploma. At Genesis School of Natural Health we believe in complete honesty and transparency. We do not offer degrees because we are not part of the government educational system. We offer diplomas and certificates of completion. Please read accreditation and certification for more details. 

We do support the American Herbalist Guild: “At this time, there is no licensure or legal recognition for professional clinical herbalists in the United States. However, the completion of most programs, and/or a thorough course of independent study can count towards the educational requirements needed to apply for Registered Herbalist membership in the American Herbalists Guild.”

Student Testimonials

I want to thank you for the experience with Genesis School of Natural Health. I really believe you are far superior to other natural health schools because of your content and dedication. I went into this just wanting a certificate for herbalism to prove to myself I knew what I was doing. I’ve learned so much more than I ever expected. With this knowledge, I am able to better help clients and the public in ways I never knew I would. Thank you, R. L.
"Genesis School of Natural Health is absolutely one of the best natural health schools in the market! The curriculum is all inclusive and the presentation has a scaffolding effect. The school representatives are highly knowledgeable and possess a heartfelt desire to help the students. This is overall the best experience I have ever had with any school. My Master’s degree is in Public Health with a Health Education and Promotion Certification. I will tell you, Genesis School of Natural Health ranks equally with regionally accredited colleges based on Genesis’ curriculum selections and program platforms. I recommend this school to anyone wanting to gain a firm understanding of Holistic health." - Dana A.
“At Genesis School of Natural Health you’ll discover a comprehensive, personalized course of study guaranteed to equip you for your career in natural health care.I transferred to GSNH from a well-recognized, established natural health school where I had been disappointed in the lack of mentorship and hands-on training in their doctor of naturopathy program. Anyone can acquire a book list to read through and many natural health schools share similar curriculum contents… it’s the personal connection that inspires excellence and distinguishes among schools. - Faith S.
Genesis School of Natural Health has most definitely met my expectations regarding the quality, relevance, integrity and authenticity of their curriculum and their entire institution. Biology major, Master Herbalist and longtime Naturopathic Medicine apprentice and researcher Sharlene Peterson’s passion in sharing the wisdom of Natural Health has materialized as Genesis and continues to be the guiding light in the way things are managed with the help of a small yet dedicated and extremely able and knowledgeable staff. If you are looking for an online diploma mill where you can receive your qualification in a few sittings without really learning much then I’m sorry to say that Genesis is not the school for you. There are no shortcuts here. You really have to dedicate hours to reading and understanding the course texts, answering the exams, and attending online classes, Genesis graduates rank among the most competent in the field and because of that I highly recommend this school to everyone including those who do not intend to practice but are just looking to gain the necessary knowledge to keep themselves and their family in optimum state of health. - Daryl P.
