Onboarding Physical Therapist
I was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, but now call Texas home with my husband, our two teenage boys, and our sassy toddler daughter who keeps us all on our toes! Sports are a huge part of our family, especially hockey, so you’ll often find us at the rink cheering on our boys or traveling for tournaments. Outside of hockey, I love traveling with my family, running, working out, cooking, shopping, and finding any excuse to coordinate outfits with my daughter!
I’ve been a physical therapist for over 17 years, with most of my career focused on outpatient orthopedics. Before moving to Texas, I owned and operated my own physical therapy practice, which I eventually sold as our family began a new chapter. My experience as both a clinician and business owner has given me a unique perspective on patient care and the importance of building genuine relationships with the people we serve. Over the past several years, I’ve also expanded into virtual musculoskeletal care, helping people navigate their recovery and achieve their goals beyond the traditional clinic setting.
One thing I’ve learned throughout my career is that great physical therapy starts with listening. Every person has a different story, different goals, and different reasons for wanting to feel better. I believe the most important part of what we do is understanding what truly matters to someone and helping them find the right path forward. Whether that’s returning to competitive sports, keeping up with their kids, or simply getting back to the activities they love, there’s nothing more rewarding than helping someone regain their confidence and quality of life.
That’s what excites me most about The Movement Schopp. I love that our approach goes beyond simply treating pain and focuses on helping people move better, become stronger, and stay active for the long haul. As part of the Discovery Call team, I get to combine my clinical background with my passion for connecting with people, learning their stories, and helping them take that first step toward reaching their goals. To me, it’s not just about getting someone scheduled. It’s about making sure they feel heard, understood, and confident that they’re taking the right step toward becoming their best selves.
