Questions and answers

Für viele Interessierte ist der Ausbildungsweg zur Komplementärtherapeutin unklar. Die Ausbildung zur Komplementärtherapeutin kann in vielen verschiedenen Methoden absolviert werden, wie z.B. Cranio Sacral Therapie, Shiatsu, Yoga oder Atemtherapie, die alle dem Bereich der Komplementärtherapie zugeordnet werden. In der Regel absolviert man einen Grundkurs in der gewählten Methode. So kann man die Methode finden, die am besten zu einem passt. Die einzelnen Methoden verbinden sich dann zu den Tronc Commun-Kursen. Im Tronc Commun werden schulmedizinische Grundlagen, Psychologie sowie berufsspezifische Grundlagen wie Ethik, Menschenbild, Marketing und therapeutische Kommunikation vermittelt. Die Ausbildung dauert in der Regel mindestens 4 Jahre, da sie sehr umfangreich ist und in der Regel neben dem Beruf absolviert wird. Der Zwischenabschluss ist ein Facharbeiterbrief. Teil der Ausbildung ist auch ein Praktikum, um das Gelernte zu verinnerlichen und anwenden zu können. Das Ziel der Ausbildung in Komplementärtherapie ist der eidgenössische Abschluss, d.h. die Höhere Fachprüfung, nach der man den Titel eidg. dipl. Komplementärtherapeut / Komplementärtherapeutin erhält. 

Der Weg zum KomplementärTherapeuten / zur KomplementärTherapeutin mit eidgenössischem Diplom führt über das Branchenzertifikat KT, Supervision, Berufserfahrung und einer bestandenen Höheren Fachprüfung. Ein Vorbereitungskurs kann als Unterstützung auf die Prüfungen durchaus sinnvoll sein.

Je nach Schule finden die Lehrgänge zum Branchenzertifikat OdA KT zu anderen Tageszeiten statt, so dass Sie sich bitte direkt bei den einzelnen Anbietern für eine Weiterbildung zur Komplementärtherapeutin / zum Komplementärtherapeuten über die exakten Daten informieren sollten. Oftmals werden die Lehrgänge in mehreren Blockveranstaltungen oder zwei-Tages-Kursen angeboten, selten in einer Vollzeitausbildung.
