​continuing education for massage therapists


"Be a student as long as you still have something to learn, and this will mean all your life." -Henry L. Doherty

I am happy to offer continuing education classes for massage therapists that meet the four-hour ethics, communication, and boundaries CE requirement for Oregon and Washington.

​All CE classes are located in Portland, Oregon.

My intention is to create opportunities for massage therapists to meet this requirement in a meaningful way.

the ethics of client-centered presence

Client-centered presence is an essential component of the therapeutic relationship, an ethical responsibility, and a commitment we make to our clients.  However, at times our human bodies and minds can make this challenging to achieve or sustain. In this class, we will discuss what client-centered presence is (and isn’t), what threatens it, and why it matters.  We will explore prevention strategies to minimize the likelihood of losing this client-centered presence, and what we can do in the moment when it inevitably happens.  

My intention is to provide a safe space within which you can engage in honest self-reflection and dialogue with your peers. There will be opportunities for writing, small and large group discussion, guided mindfulness activities...and space for whatever else we co-create.  

This four-hour course satisfies the ethics, communication, and boundaries continuing education requirement for massage therapists in 
Oregon and Washington.
