MASTER BRIDGING®

“I was going to take a few classes but ended up getting the certification this year.”

Deb B, PTrecent Bridging Certification graduate

“I have seen it helping some people that I am working with now. Peeling off the layers and their life is changing. I want to be able to do that to help people.”

Dina H.Bridging Certification intern

“In Occupational Therapy, we are often presented with a diagnosis or a problem to solve. We do assessments and follow protocols without really delving into why the individual ended up that way to begin with. With Bridging, the understanding of a client’s path, from birth on forward, helps to piece together a treatment plan for the individual.”

“As a pediatric physical therapist, I was blown away with what was happening with Bridging. I think getting certified in Bridging would give other professionals a whole new perspective on why their clients function the way they do and then help them to function better.”

Leslie TengKinetic Bridging Specialist and Pediatric Physical Therapist

“The irony was that I was going to take a few classes, but ended up finishing the certification this year. This body of work continues to evolve and I want more! I have no plans of saying I’m certified and done.”

Insights from attendees

“This is a hands-on course. Not theoretical and I like that.”

Amanda B.Bridging Certification intern

“I have worked as an occupational therapist for 25 years. I love my work but became frustrated at times when my clients would reach plateaus for extended periods of time. I had brought one of my children to The Bridging Institute on the referral from a developmental optometrist and was pleased with the results I had seen. I started to refer some of my clients that I thought would benefit from Bridging®. The changes I saw in my clients were remarkable. I was so impressed with the results that I began attending some of the Bridging® sessions with my clients and knew I had to learn the technique myself. I completed the certification course in two years and now I help Cara teach it to other professionals.”
