Your body deserves care that honors its complexity.

My Journey to Pelvic Health

I have always felt passionate about supporting and empowering women. Though I got my start in the world of outpatient orthopedic physical therapy, I have always held a deep respect and fascination for the pelvis. Once I had my daughter and became a mother, the desire to support the women in my community only grew, and I knew it was the right time to transition into being a women’s pelvic health physical therapy provider. As women, I believe we deserve so much better, and I am committed to being a trusted presence in our community—not just as a clinician, but as an educator and advocate.

A Collaborative Whole-Person Approach

The pelvis is far from just an anatomical region—it's a highly complex meeting point of many essential body systems and functions, and more than that, it’s a place where we hold and experience joy, stress, pain, pleasure, fear, and trauma. It is central to how we move through the world, yet it's still one of the most overlooked and under-treated parts of the body.

I see you as a whole person; I don’t believe in treating the pelvis in isolation. Your body deserves care that honors its complexity—not care dictated by insurance timelines and limitations that prioritize profits over healing. When you work with me, you receive my undivided attention in one-on-one sessions for a course of care designed to help you reach your individualized goals. Pelvic floor physical therapy is not a “one-size-fits-all” approach; it is an opportunity to utilize a vast toolkit of interventions that are tailored to meet your personal needs.

Bridging Orthopedic and Pelvic Specialties

With my strong orthopedic background, I am uniquely positioned to treat pelvic pain and dysfunction. I bring an extensive education in the human movement system, functional mechanics, post-operative care, and sports rehab, and integrate it directly with pelvic health specialization.

I approach every patient with a deep respect for their unique story. While we all share the experience of being human, your journey is yours alone and you are the expert of your own body; I’m here to listen, collaborate, and meet you exactly where you are. You deserve to receive dignified care in a safe space and have your experience validated—not dismissed or minimized as so many of us have experienced when seeking help.

What sets me apart is my empathy, my passion for this work, and my belief that true healing happens when someone feels heard, supported, and empowered. I'm not just here to treat symptoms—I'm here to partner with you in reclaiming your body, your function, and your quality of life.

Kate is by far the best!! From the beginning she listened closely and tailored my program to my specific needs. She also tracked my progress closely and adjusted my program to ensure that I was constantly improving. She takes her time and gives each patient individual care. She is very detailed oriented and truly wants you to reach the goals you come in with.

Kate is an amazing [physical therapist] who truly knows her stuff. She showed amazing patience with me and spent each and every session with me, nurturing me with a unique, amazingly positive approach and I’m so thankful for the experience. I left her care … in a lot better shape than I entered.
