Therapists in Fort Worth, TX

A must read, *How to Understand Anything in Ten Minutes a Day." First, after graduation, review what you learned in class. Then explore outward. http://nmtcenter.com/articles/

Joe Muscolino- clinical orthopedic manual therapy or COMP

We all have different learning styles, so I'll make a few suggestions to try and cover as many as possible, then you can choose that which best suits you. It should go without saying, while in school, get your hands on as many people as possible and learn your own style, you may find that working with a Chiro doesn't fit for you. It certainly wouldn't fit for me. In Person classes: (I do these only sparingly because I find it much harder to grasp all the information when it is data dumped in the course of a day or 2) nmtmidwest.com Any of the courses taught by Doug Nelson, Seth Will, and the rest of their outstanding group. I learn tremendously everytime I take one of their classes, and more importantly I find out which books to read. (Doug's books are also good) Textbook to get you started: (This is how I learn best) I recommend getting a good anatomy book. (free online one here-- http://sherristakes.com/download/art/Color%20Atlas%20 of%20Anatomy%20-%20A%20Photog.%20Study%20 of%20 the%20Human%20Body%207 th%20 ed.%20-%20J.%20Rohen,%20 et%20 al.,%20%28Lippincott,%202011%29%20WW.pdf) Next, every therapist should have Travell and Simons "Big Red" books http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/0683307711/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new as these will cover just about everything you will see in a clinic and give you practical advise and treatment options. Also read Sensitive Nervous System, Explain Pain, and Painful Yarns as Butler and Moseley will usher you away from Travell a bit and give you a better explanation for why things hurt. Online/DVD Classes: (My 2 nd Choice to Text book learning) Erik Dalton, Joe Muscolino, Ben Benjamin, Aaron Mattes, Art Riggs, Ross Pope, and many many more. Honestly, this forum, Somasimple.com, and Saveyourself.ca have taught me more than I learned in most online classes. You need to know how to determine good from bad clinical reasoning before spending thousands of dollars on CEU classes based on guru-worship and faulty treatment models.

http://www.scottlarkermt.ca/ MET is something I use daily. Scott was an instructor at my school. He is an excellent instructor. It would be worth your trip to Victoria BC

If you do well with home study/online I HIGHLY recommend you work through the Art Riggs DVD series (for DT techniques) and Whitney Lowe's online classes (for clinical reasoning). The nice thing about home study or online is you can watch the material as many times as it takes to get it. Weekend workshops dump a vast amount of material at you in a very short period of time. Erik Dalton's stuff is fantastic, but it sounds like you might have some remedial work before you would get as much out of it - it can be more advanced, and he has a pretty rapid fire delivery. If you go though his DVDs carefully first though, a workshop with him will be very worthwhile. Really powerful techniques, and good emphasis on use of bodyweight.

Active Isolated Stretching (AIS) by Aaron Mattes is a great way to learn or solidify your knowledge of anatomy and kinesiology. Very effective work too! Also, I second learning myofascial release techniques. Any book by Leon Chaitow.

Look at Judith DeLany's NMT classes. She's a very clear instructor. Nmtcenter.com You might also consider John Barnes Mtofascial Therapy and Uoledger's Craniosacral Therapy.

I support many of the suggestions given so far. Never stop learning! Regarding Active Isolated Stretching: Aaron Mattes no longer teaches seminars outside of Florida due to his age and health. His top protege teaching seminars around the country is Roger McNear, whose seminars are EXCELLENT, especially for those new to AIS! You can find a complete listing of Roger's and Aaron's seminars at www.AISFitness.com There is a FB page dedicated to AIS, called Active Isolated Stretching Practitioners. There's a ton of info there, including links to video clips and web sites.

My mentor taught me that when you finish school your education begins. That being said, you will find clients that benefit best from deep tissue, others who don't. As my school focused on the "scorched earth" approach for lots of the massage components, I have found studying movement patterns to be helpful. Muscle energy is a great modality to offset the "deep tissue is always better" approach. Strain/Counterstrain is fantastic for whiplash. Anatomy Trains is a great learning model to expand your understanding of where to look after you've exhausted structurally approached assessments.

Check out " LMT Success Group " Medical Massage training. Affordable and short. I took them all.

To really learn advanced work you need to have more hands on courses with lecture. For example if you have a client that walks in with multiple sclerosis you will need to know that specific massage application in addition to the diagnosis of the client and what treatment protocol they are receiving. When I teach these courses the students learn the anatomy physiology pathology and how to treat the condition with massage. Also when you learn how to work with medical massage you make more money by billing no fault auto insurance and workman's compensation. Chiropractors are OK to work with because you still get to learn a lot from the office but when they do the billing The massage therapist gets a minimum payment. Go to AMTA.org for a list of continuing ed

AMTA has a class schedule, and NCBTMB.org has a list of approved providers, if your state recognizes their credits. Reading is also valuable. Review your school books regularly. There are some excellent anatomy books. I'm fond of Clemente, and good cadaver photo book is especially useful. If you learn your anatomy and precautions well, you can more easily learn your techniques and apply theories. If you refrain from innovating until you have the set routines down pat, your innovations will be more effective.

Jim Roaten, M.Ed. Therapist. Takes BCBS, at least some plans. On Malvey, across from the used-to-be-Taco Bueno on Camp Bowie. 817-737-5599.

I know this doesn’t exactly apply, but might be helpful in the meantime :) Her name is Kati Morton She’s licensed and has a video for just about everything. https://www.youtube.com/user/KatiMorton

I use Lake Worth Counseling for my weekly therapy visits. And Dr. John Naus in Colleyville for psychiatrist care. Lake Worth Counseling has many therapists that can help treat many different things and you can keep going to a different one until you find the right fit. Also with that many therapists, it's very easy to get in as a patient. Dr. Naus can be difficult to get into, but everyone that goes there seems to love him and stick with him for long periods of time.

The Telos Project office has great therapists. Their office is at 8 th & Rosedale. They have regular sessions available, not related to the project. My BCBS copay is $20

I've used Dr. Lana Self. Can not recommend her more highly. She has been the best therapist I've been to.

Thank you all for the suggestions! I really appreciate it

Fort Worth counseling and intervention is great as well. Really flexible hours. Even as late as 9 pm. http://fwcai.com/

When I still had insurance I went to see Dr. Richard Schmitt at (I think) Arlington Counseling Group off of 20 and Green Oaks Blvd, and they just charged whatever my regular doctor co-pay was (which at that time was $30). [I don't know if this link will work for his info, but here's trying.](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Richard+C+Schmitt+PHD/@32.6720333,-97.1941282,3 a,75 y,90 t/data=!3 m8!1 e2!3 m6!1 sAF1QipNOs6 d-djxXI660TBv_eLgPBj9 axdV1 y9 b_2310!2 e10!3 e12!6 shttps:%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%2Fp%2FAF1QipNOs6 d-djxXI660TBv_eLgPBj9 axdV1 y9 b_2310%3Dw152-h86-k-no!7 i3264!8 i1836!4 m8!1 m2!2 m1!1 stherapist!3 m4!1 s0 x0:0 xfc890997 ddd07 ff5!8 m2!3 d32.67182!4 d-97.1941573)

Dr. Debra Dayton in Bedford. She’s a psychologist and specializes in women struggling with anxiety, parenting, and stresses of life. Takes BCBS. I just finished three months of therapy with her and she helped me tremendously! http://www.debradayton.com

Dr. Elizabeth Otenaike is fantastic! Unfortunately I haven’t seen her in a few months because Medicare decided to charge me $40 per visit when it used to be covered. I have severe ptsd. Her approach is very positive.

Center for Counseling and Family Relationships — [www.ccfam.com](www.ccfam.com) Off 820N and 35W

Bessie Ann Christenson with Rehope Counseling is phenomenal, used to be the clinical director at my current placement. https://rehopecounseling.com/ I also highly, highly recommend Odette Tomlinson and Kim Davis at The Parenting Center. We work with anybody who has the desire to commit to therapy, so not limited to parents or children. All of my recommendations are wonderful with depression and anxiety. http://theparentingcenter.org/services/counseling/ If I could work with any of them, I would probably personally choose Odette based on personality.

Ruth Calzada - she just got her essential oil kit from YLEO, so she may already have the oil. She just needs to know which one to use.

Sherri 'Brown' Aaron I just saw your message.. Yes Im the Program Director over the Massage Therapy Program at The College of Healthcare Professions. I still practice massage usually at clients homes/offices... Im sorry your hurting.. Definitely take advantage of those essential oils.. Im at work today but off when I leave until next Monday..

Tammy Cox at Huguley. Excellent knowledge of muscles and what pushes and pulls. She also works some fm days in Weatherford. She is worth the drive. If you want her number, text me.

Yay for essential oils! We got on the band wagon about a month ago. Totally agree with Ruth's suggestion. Pan Away is a little hot to me so make sure you dilute with carrier oil. Use your oils frequently and feel better soon! If you ever get in a pinch, call me. I'm stocking up on these oils as fast as I can. Love them!
