About HALO

HALO was created in 2001 by Debbie Leland and Cathy Biedinger from their
desire to provide quality and thorough training to others in the Healing Arts. Lead by
Registered Massage Therapists Chris & Robynne Tennant, the mission of facilitating
personal growth and education in its students continued. This legacy is now being
spearheaded by Tanya Goreing, a holistic therapist skilled in multiple modalities and long time HALO alumni.



Holistic health practices have become widely accepted and utilized by growing
populations around the world. We look forward to sharing our knowledge with you
so that you can extend your new found skills on to those you know and treat in
therapy.  HALO recognizes the need for ethical and standardized information and
training to ensure the safety of the public.



HALO's Doula Programs prepare women from all backgrounds to support women and their families through pregnancy, birth and postpartum with confidence. Whether you've given birth or not, are knowledgeable in holistic support or not, HALO supports their doulas through every step of the certification process and new business building. 



Our certification process is flexible and adaptable with an easy to understand process so that everyone can be successful. Students are encouraged to take their training in a direction that fulfills your personal desire as a doula and meets the needs of your community. While each student starts with a strong foundation of doula skills covering all areas of pregnancy, birth and postpartum doula support, each student will personalize their own doula practice by having the freedom to choose electives in areas that they feel connected to.


HALO is famous for our continued support from mentors and peers. We offer regular online doula shares and support so that everyone grows, evolves and learns continuously from each other. 

​

We are a small learning organization with a personal 'family' feel. We look forward to welcoming you into the HALO Doula family.
