I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy and Certified Functional Manual Therapist (CFMT) who specializes in orthopedic therapy, pelvic health and functional manual therapy. My full body approach of assessment and treatment aims to find the root of the problem and holistic healing that incorporates mind and body. I include personalized assessment and treatment using movement assessment, manual therapy, and specific exercise to reach each personal goal. My unique training through the Institute of Physical Art, Herman and Wallace Institute and Barral Institute has allowed me to efficiently provide exceptional treatment for various conditions helping to restore and optimize function. 

Analysis of human movement has always been something that has always fascinated me especially as a former dancer and yoga practitioner. I began my career as a physical therapist working in the orthopedic population and the dance population. I also have worked with professional dancers and performers on Broadway. Studying movement and efficiency to gain optimal human function has been my passion and led me to connect the dots as I studied the interrelationship of pelvic floor function with the rest of the human body. The pelvic floor, also known as the “mula bonda” in yoga is your center. It is your core. Core efficiency is so important for grounding and for optimal function of the rest of your body. Understanding the functioning of your pelvic floor allows you to connect to your breath and is essential for diaphragmatic functioning. All of this not only helps with physical demands, it also is essential for mind-body relationship and your nervous system. In my practice I aim to create holistic healing and balance through physical rehabilitation and mind-body healing. 

My dedication as a practitioner is to provide expert quality care without the restraints of insurance companies. This will give me the freedom to help create a safe and healing environment with one - on - one sessions  uniquely tailored to you and your needs. The combination of highly skilled treatment, education and specific exercises will allow you to take charge of your health and healing leaving you to come out feeling confident and empowered. Thank you for choosing me in your healing journey. 

Working collaboratively we will design a specific plan to set you up for success and achieve your goals.
