Why I Love Pediatric Physical Therapy

I enjoy working with children of all ages, from infants to adolescents. It’s rewarding to see the excitement on their faces when they achieve a new skill or adapt their body to reach a goal. I love helping parents understand their child’s needs and guiding both the child and family to reach their goals.

Through play, children strengthen their bodies without even realizing it. I’m passionate about creating an environment where they can grow and become more independent, whether that’s reaching for a toy or moving more confidently. Empowering children and families to reach their full potential is what drives me.
