Overview
In this Quick Course, we are focusing on building upon our current practice approaches as trainers, coaches, athletic therapists, massage therapists, physiotherapists, and other fitness providers so we can compassionately and effectively support our clients as they work toward their rehab and fitness goals!
Learning Objectives
In this online course, you will learn:
- To critically think about the differences between traditional provider-centered care and client-guided care models
- To understand and use key concepts of motivational interviewing and behaviour-based goal-setting
- To reframe client ‘non-compliance’ and how we can support clients as they navigate roadblocks.
- To consider the importance of trauma-informed care, and how to strive to create a safe and brave space when clients feel vulnerable.
- To consider how to apply these concepts to your work with clients, building off the knowledge and spirit that you already bring into your client/patient interactions.
Audience
This introductory course is suitable for anyone who is client/patient-facing and strives to create a nurturing and supportive environment. This course is a segment from a live online course and there is a discussion between Physiotherapists and Certified Athletic Therapists on the recording. This presents a great intersection in the discussion between health coaching and therapeutic medical models of care.

BScHK (Hons), MScPT
Jenny is an Educator and Pelvic Health Physiotherapist out of Ontario, Canada. Jenny is co-author and presenter of three courses: "External Approaches to Pelvic Health: Education, Exercise, Empowerment" with Ashley Burr, CAT(C) on Embodia and In-Person; "Pessaries: Clinical Integration and Management of POP/SUI" and "Clinical Update: SUI and POP Research and Management Review" with Cara McDougall, PT through Pelvic Health Solutions.
Women’s pelvic health has, unfortunately, been considered a taboo topic and has historically been overlooked in health education, our medical system, and our culture as a whole. This means that concerns about bladder leaking, pelvic organ prolapse, sexual pain or pelvic/low back pain have been overlooked or considered “normal” with aging or after having children. Although pelvic concerns are being talked about more on social media, this can also lead to conflicting messaging from a variety of sources that may leave female clients feeling more confused and unsure of what to do next.
Jenny's goal through these courses is to share current and practical information so that providers can affirm, empower and support their female clients throughout the lifespan. Jenny has been working as Senior Teaching Assistant with Antony Lo on his Female Athlete series of courses, as well as being a Teaching Assistant with Pelvic Health Solutions, since 2018.
Clinically, Jenny works collaboratively with people experiencing pelvic health concerns so that they can understand their bodies, stop worrying, and confidently progress towards their fitness or lifestyle goals. She strives to provide compassionate, inclusive, and trauma-informed Physiotherapy and Pessary care that revolves around her client’s goals and fits into their lifestyle.
Jenny's work with client's includes external and internal assessment, manual therapy, pessary use if indicated, and exercise prescription, as well as exploring other contributing factors with her clients such as their personal health history, stress management, sleep habits, foundations of nutrition, and movement preferences.
Jenny has always pursued various forms of exercise herself, from jogging to CrossFit, from yoga to belly dancing. Apart from being a completely average gym goer, she also enjoys reading fiction and spending time outdoors with her husband, Sho.
