One-on-One Mentorship
In-Person Sessions — Bend, Oregon
Precision manual therapy for complex and persistent structural dysfunction.
This practice is best suited for individuals seeking thoughtful, systems-level care. Sessions are designed for those committed to resolving the deeper structural drivers of pain and dysfunction rather than temporary symptom relief.
Advance Your Assessment. Refine Your Hands. Expand Your Clinical Thinking.
Learning manual therapy is one thing. Developing the ability to consistently recognize what is Primary and confidently apply the right treatment is another.

Whether you are just beginning to integrate these concepts or have years of clinical experience, the goal is to help you develop greater clarity, precision, and confidence in your assessment and treatment.
Sessions are available in person in Bend, Oregon, or virtually through live video consultation.

Mentorship Options
In-Person Mentorship
Hands-on learning provides immediate feedback and allows us to work directly with technique, hand placement, palpation, and treatment strategy.
Sessions may include:
- Hands-on demonstration
- Supervised practice
- Technique refinement
- Clinical reasoning
- Treatment sequencing
- Individualized feedback
Whether you want to review a single concept or spend several hours working through multiple techniques, the session will be tailored specifically to your needs.
Virtual Mentorship
Distance doesn't have to limit learning.
Virtual sessions are ideal for:
- Reviewing difficult patient cases
- Clinical reasoning and treatment planning
- Refining assessment strategies
- Understanding anatomy and biomechanics
- Reviewing techniques from previous classes
- Answering questions as you integrate new skills into practice
Many practitioners find that discussing cases and reviewing the reasoning behind treatment dramatically improves their confidence when they return to the treatment room.
My Teaching Philosophy
The body functions as an integrated system, not as isolated parts.
Rather than chasing symptoms or treating anatomy in a predetermined sequence, we learn to recognize how the body is organizing itself, determine what is Primary, and apply precise treatment that allows the system to reorganize.
The more clearly you understand how anatomy is designed to move, the more accurately you can assess the body and restore function.
My goal is not simply to teach techniques, it is to help you develop the perception, reasoning, and confidence needed to become a more effective clinician.
Scheduling
Most mentorship sessions are one hour and are tailored to your specific goals, questions, and clinical challenges.
Whether you're refining a particular technique, working through a difficult patient case, improving your assessment skills, or gaining a deeper understanding of osteopathic techniques and visceral manipulation, each session is designed to provide practical, individualized guidance that you can immediately apply in your practice.
Sessions are available in person in Bend, Oregon, or virtually by live video.
If you are interested in accelerating your learning, multiple one-hour sessions can be scheduled over time to provide continued mentorship and support as your skills develop.
