Holistic Hypothalamic Amenorrhea Practitioner Course
Become your own HA Expert
This is the most comprehensive course to give you ALL of the possible knowledge about hypothalamic amenorrhea and how to unravel it for yourself.
Many who have gone through the course have been able to resolve their own issues and get pregnant naturally
This is an accredited program that will not only give you the credentials, but the confidence you need to fully step into your recovery and make meaningful change in your life.
See the methods we use from the coaching side, and hear and learn from the practitioners perspective.
The program is an all encompassing of everything from what's going on under the hood of a woman with HA, how to identify the true issue going and how to work on the the mindset piece so that you actually want to stay committed and recover for life.
What sets us at The HA Society apart as coaches is that we have the tactical knowledge combined with the empathy, compassion and soft skills needed from years of coaching and counseling. This is what allows us to work with women to implement changes that actually stick.
HA is more complex than eating more and exercising less, there's a whole mindset piece that truly makes the difference in if someone fully recovers or not. And so, we are excited to take all of our knowledge and put it into a course that actually allows other women to help other women in the exact same way!

FAQ’s
-
Rather than just briefly skipping over amenorrhea like most courses, we are deep diving in to this common and serious epidemic. Too many practitioners have little to no knowledge or experience with HA and similarly presenting menstrual cycle issues meaning that their clients often walk away empty handed or with an unnecessary prescription or fertility treatment referral.
If more practitioners knew about HA, the precursor symptoms and the aftermath effects and how to deal with it, they would be able to better help every single one of their clients regardless of their hormonal challenges.
This is why we encourage you to become your own practitioner.

“Thank you. Through our call and learning more from you and Ashley in HHAP. I felt so damn empowered and like I knew exactly what my body needed. There is truly no better feeling! I quite literally did/focused on exactly what you guys are teaching in HHAP, and it works. Can't wait to continue to help others!”
- Emily, Recent Graduate of the HHAP Program”
We know our stuff – this is what clients say.
“Over the last 10 weeks, I went on a journey full of ups and downs (and lots of tears haha). I'm so thankful for the community that the HA Society provided, since I was able to bounce a lot of my thoughts/feelings/frustrations off a lot of the other girls in the group and both give and receive support. The weekly calls through the Restore program (when I could make them) helped me engage with others in actually talking out loud about issues like food rules, diet mentality, body image hang-ups, exercise rigidity, which was so helpful. Thanks for providing the food review as a part of the course- it was really helpful to have what I eat looked at from another person's perspective!”
- Stephanie
“I just got my 1st recovery period and had to share the news with you all!!! I honestly thought the day would never come as I’ve only had maybe two real ovulations/periods in my whole life when I was a teen before getting HA and pre birth control (and I’m now 31 yrs old). So if you’re that person thinking it will never happen for you, I wanted to share to say that yes it 100% can and will! Perservering through all of the tough moments is the hardest thing, but hte outcome is worth it! And this community is here to cheer you on every step of the way!
I am SO grateful to have had the support from this community (and Dani Sheriff and Ashley Smith) along the way! I’m continually inspired by everyone’s bravery, perseverance, vulnerability, wisdom, and support for one another! This is a special community,”
- Ali
“I’m in shock that I’m here ladies! Thanks Ashley & Dani for granting me access to this group :) Positive test this morning & VERY positive! Lol - thinking I’m 6 weeks. Yippppeeee!”
- Rhonda
“I was afraid to share this sooner as I thought I might wake up from a dream, but I got my first recovery period on Tuesday! I haven’t had a true, natural period since before I went on birth control in high school, so this is a major victory! I honestly didn’t think it would happen this quickly, but I am so glad it did. Keep the faith, keep fighting, and think positively about yourself and your potential if you stay on this journey. I know with certainty I wouldn’t have been able to do it without this community, so thank you for all the advice, experiences, and support!”
