“My philosophy of care centers on building strong communication and relationships with the patient where we can work as a team to determine goals and an appropriate plan of care that meets their specific goals. I love celebrating small wins and improvements and navigating difficult and frustrating moments with patients along the journey of healing as they return to activities they love. I value hands-on manual therapy to promote pain-free movement alongside progressive exercises for improved mobility in daily life.”
