Elevate Your Practice: Beginner to Intermediate Pelvic Therapy Mentorship with Dr. Tracy Sher, PT, DPT, CSCS

Dr. Tracy Sher, DPT, thoroughly enjoys offering mentoring sessions to facilitate discussions about case management. She initiated this project with a series of 3 online mentoring sessions that were very well-received. So, we added the recordings for GPHAM members and will continue offering mentoring sessions each year. Look out for new announcements and check this page too! 

As pelvic health therapists, we often work in isolation or with colleagues with similar knowledge levels. So often, we hear how many of our amazing colleagues desperately seek out other pelvic health therapists to guide them through complicated cases or have some input from a “been there, done that” perspective. But this is tough to find!

We hope this is helpful for you! Learn the stuff that gets missed!

What people are saying about
Tracy's mentoring:

Tracy is so passionate about this work. It is a pleasure to learn from her. She is very clear on the information provided, and educates well for multiple learning styles (I am audio-visual and also kinesthetic, but having the pelvis model throughout was great for me!
I always learn so much from Tracy every time I attend one of her courses, catch a webinar on GPHAM and now, from attending these mentoring sessions. She is so generous with her time on these mentoring sessions! Covering background on topics has been particularly helpful as some of the foundational pelvic floor courses that we have taken certainly lacked some important concepts. Thank you, Tracy, for filling in the gaps!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us and for being so generous with your time. It was great review of specific conditions as well as learning new Rx techniques to apply. Will definitely sign up again if offered.
I learned so much as a novice pelvic floor PT. I am an ortho PT who has taken H&W 1 and about to take 2A next weekend. My next travel PT assignment is fully pelvic floor (in the past I was just part time PFPT and part time ortho) and this has gotten me very excited when I was feeling overwhelmed. I am now excited to become part of GPHAM. I feel this will be an excellent way to feel supported when I have been the only PF PT in my past positions. Thank you Tracy!!!
As busy as I know Tracy is, I’m impressed by all the work she does to better our profession and I am forever grateful for that.
Tracy, I really appreciate your time producing these live, free sessions. As a pelvic health PT for 25 years, I was still able to learn from you each session!
Exactly what I have been needing to improve my practice. Hearing real examples and what treatment worked for them is so helpful. Tracy is amazing!
Tracy Sher's passion for both the field of pelvic health and in the teaching of theory and practice is magnetic. I loved the balance of research and clinical judgement and I think her sense of how to emphasize key takeaways is brilliant. I hope to be able to participate in more mentoring sessions with her in the future!
I'm new to the space of pelvic health and chose to transition to this field when I recognized how burned out I was in acute care. In starting this journey, I'm afraid of getting burned out again and not having enough support, for myself and for my clients. These mentoring sessions bolstered my confidence and provided me with actionable information, whether a small change in an intake form, or a different approach to a client's experience. 
Attending this mentoring webinar has been so insightful to me especially as it relates to women with different stages of prolapse. The case studies presented were also quite helpful in learning ways to better serve my clients.
I appreciate Tracy Sher offering this terrific learning experience! I took away new clinical pearls and expanded my thinking on many cases I have right now. I loved the “clinical love seats” case discussions and hope to see more in the future.
Tracy’s passion for teaching shines through the screen. She has a wonderful way of imparting knowledge that is both digestible and thought-provoking, encouraging us to consider different approaches with our patients. The 'Love Seat' segment is especially interactive and insightful, offering great perspectives on case approaches.
The content is clinical-oriented with evidence support, making it being practical!
