Fortinberry Murray Method

Note: We are currently redeveloping our general training certificate in the FM Method, for health professionals, students and those who want to increase their wellbeing and effectiveness.

Revolutionary Mind-Body Therapy

The Fortinberry Murray Method is based on psychologist Dr Bob Murray and psychotherapist and Feldenkrais Practitioner Alicia Fortinberry's innovative approach to healing. Incorporating unique anthropological insights and powerful mind and body techniques, the FM Method offers a breakthrough method for effecting lasting positive change on all levels: mental, emotional, physical and spiritual.

Psychologists, counselors, body-workers and medical professionals learn the FM Method to find new directions and techniques that can be applied within their own modalities. They also gain expertise in new areas. For example, psychotherapists learn simple but effective ways of understanding and working with the whole person, and somatic therapists gain techniques for supporting clients emotionally.

Fortinberry Murray can also be practiced by licensed health professionals as a stand-alone modality.

Note that the Uplift Intensive, which teaches basic Fortinberry-Murray principles, is a prerequisite, and an excellent introduction to our method.

For therapists trained in the Fortinberry Murray Method or Uplift principles browse our practitioner list.

“I believe that Bob and Alicia's work is the direction that Moshe Feldenkrais would have gone in had he lived longer.”
-- Ruthy Alon, Feldenkrais Trainer, author of Mindful Spontaneity.
“The Fortinberry Murray Method is at the leading edge of new thought in healing.
-- Sandy Bernabei, CSW, Rockland Council on Alcoholism
“They showed clearly how psychotherapy works. The work of therapists can never be the same.”
-- Vann Joins, Director, Southeast Institute for Group and Family Therapy, author of TA Today
“I understand more how to work with the whole person, and I now have a strong vision of new directions for nursing.
-- Joan Alfano, RN, Clinical Supervisor, Northern Westchester Hospital

Health professionals will also benefit from our professional and public talks and workshops.
