Movement is Medicine
As a provider, I believe the most effective approach is to find functional movement that feels accessible and beneficial for your body. Small movements can be powerful and impact our pain in huge ways. The body is designed to move, adapt, and heal. When we stop moving well, pain and dysfunction often follow. In restoring healthy movement patterns and improving function, my patients can feel empowered to take an active role in their care. Rather than simply masking symptoms, I will work with you to address the root causes of your discomfort so you can move with confidence and live more fully.
Health at Every Size (HEAS) – Meeting Patients Where They’re At
In my practice, I embrace a Health at Every Size approach. This means recognizing that one’s wellbeing is not defined by a single number, shape, or standard. Every body is different and I believe care should reflect that. There is no one-size-fits-all solution, and what works for one person may not work for another.
Our work together begins with understanding your unique needs, goals, and experiences. From there, we will create a care plan together that feels appropriate, accessible, and supportive for where you are right now. Whether your focus is reducing pain, improving function, or feeling more at home in your body, I will meeting you with respect, flexibility, and intention.
How to Live with Chronic Pain
Chronic pain is something many people live with, and it’s not always something that can be completely eliminated. My work with chronic pain patients focuses on improving function and building effective, sustainable strategies for managing symptoms over time.
Together, we’ll take the time to understand your body and identify your current limits while exploring how to safely expand them without triggering flare-ups. This process is collaborative and tailored to you, helping you build confidence in how you move, recover, and care for yourself day to day.
A key part of our work is making sure you never leave the clinic without a plan. Whether that includes specific strategies for managing a flare, guidance on activity levels, or tools to support your progress between visits, you’ll have a clear path forward. The goal is to help you navigate life with greater consistency, control, and a stronger sense of what works for your body, even in the presence of pain.

Outside of Work
In my free time, I like to stay active and spend as much time outdoors as I can. I’m especially fond of hiking, biking, and bringing my dogs along whenever possible. I also love spending time with my spouse, whether we’re out exploring or just enjoying a quiet day together. When I’m at home, you’ll often find me making art, playing guitar, or finding a home project to keep busy.
