My Story
My journey into motherhood has taught me more than I ever expected about how amazing the female body is and how little we are educated about our bodies.
When I first started helping women as a Physical Therapist over 15 years ago, I was amazed every single day by the incredible ways our bodies work and heal. But what I didn’t realize then was just how much more there was for me to learn—things I wish I had been taught as a teenager, but only discovered through my own healing journey.
From the beginning, my career centered around women’s health. I worked with teens through women in their eighties—helping them stop bladder leaks, ease pelvic pain (including pain with sex or endometriosis), rebuild strength after birth, heal diastasis recti, and so much more. Over the years, I soaked up everything I could, refining techniques and creating strategies that helped my patients heal more efficiently and fully. And while my training focused on the physical body, I quickly realized that our healing is deeply connected to how we live, move, eat, and care for ourselves. That understanding continues to shape how I treat my patients today—with curiosity, compassion, and a whole-person approach.
About eight years ago, I began to see a major gap in care—how little preventative support was available during pregnancy, and how few options there were for new moms to access care once they were home with their babies. So, I began offering in-home visits to make recovery more accessible, comfortable, and realistic for women navigating the demands of early motherhood. That shift completely changed how I practice and deepened my commitment to making pelvic health care available to every mom who needs it.
Along the way, my own experiences have continued to shape my approach. I’ve navigated my own preconception challenges, healed gut issues that affected my fertility, and faced pelvic girdle pain during pregnancy. I tore during my first birth and completely changed how I prepared for my second. I’ve healed diastasis recti and pelvic pain in postpartum. I’ve lived through so many of the same struggles my patients face—and while at times that’s been humbling, it’s also been the most powerful reminder that I’m human too, and that every pregnancy and postpartum journey is beautifully unique.
We all bring different stories to our health, but there are shared threads that connect us—through our cycles, fertility, pregnancy, birth, and recovery. My role is to help you find and follow those threads, to understand what your body is telling you, and to give you the tools to heal with confidence and compassion.
Because I truly believe you are the expert of your own body. I’m just here to help you uncover the “why” behind what you’re feeling and guide you toward lasting relief and strength.
Championing Maternal Health
As a passionate advocate for maternal health in New Hampshire, I am committed to improving the well-being of moms and families in our community. Recently, I had the honor of addressing legislators at a breakfast held for Kids Advocacy Day, where I spoke about the critical need for better support and access to maternal health care. This advocacy is close to my heart because I believe every mom deserves the resources to thrive, and pelvic floor health is an essential piece of that puzzle. Together, we can create lasting change for the health of mothers across the state. Watch the video to see me speak at New Hampshire's Kids Advocacy Day!
