Holistic College of Eastbourne

The development of intuition is a fundamental objective of the Holistic College of Eastbourne. We aim for students to connect with their spiritual selves, to encourage their self-development, to learn a range of powerful therapeutic practices and to learn the skills to put these in practice in their personal and professional lives.

The Holistic College of Eastbourne has been facilitating the Diploma of Holistic Counselling since 1986. Lisa B Magdalena took over the position of Course Director in 2007, having been a student of the Course and a practising Holistic Counsellor since 2001. She now leads the team of experienced specialist tutors that teach this life-changing course.

The Diploma in Holistic Counselling encouraged me, challenged me and supported me. It developed my skills and empowered me to cope with my client's feelings. I learnt to value myself, trust my intuition and open to clear loving divine guidance.
