We support therapists in building clinical practice skills such as differential diagnosis, assessment, and treatment. Mentorship also supports therapists in building a general professional skillset, including leading a team, schedule management, optimizing workflows, interprofessional relationship building and personal education plan development.
Our program offers a 1:1 mentorship with a fellowship trained certified mentor, scheduled study groups, and monthly office hours.
The most comprehensive and intensive clinical education program that Therapeutic Associates (TAI) offers is our Orthopedic Residency Program. Our mission is to deliver a high quality and sustainable Orthopedic Residency Program that facilitates the development of advanced learner providers with superior orthopedic clinical management skills.
Our goal is to create practitioners who become Board Certified in Orthopedics and who obtain specialty certification in Manual Therapy (NAIOMT CMPT) to better serve our patients. Residents broadly gain orthopedic and manual therapy skills and may specifically focus on an area of clinical interest that directs projects and other work.
