I am passionate about helping women have strong, active, and comfortable pregnancies, maximizing empowerment in labor, and helping women recover optimally postpartum. I utilize all my training as a physical therapist and my post-doctoral training in pregnancy and the pelvic floor to help women keep a strong core/body, eliminate pain during pregnancy, and prevent common problems like bladder leakage, back pain, core weakness, prolapse, and Diastasis Recti.
I completed my Doctorate of Physical Therapy in 2011 and worked several years in outpatient orthopedics while pursuing specialization in pelvic floor dysfunction and women’s health PT. Even prior to having my first baby in 2016 I had deep compassion for the unspoken physical trials of new mothers, which fostered the desire to offer natural, conservative treatment options for issues that uniquely impact women.
I founded SHEFit because I believe that quality care requires personalized, one-on-one attention. I and my team are dedicated to hearing your story and creating a treatment plan based on your unique situation, goals, and priorities.
Each PT on my staff has completed hundreds of hours of pregnancy and pelvic floor related continuing education, and is an expert in this field.
In an effort to spread the word about pelvic PT, I periodically lecture for fitness professionals, healthcare professionals, birth centers, and the public throughout San Diego County.
When not treating patients I enjoy time with my 3 children, running, pilates , weightlifting, hiking, cycling on the boardwalk, travelling, and just relaxing in the San Diego sunshine!
