Doctor of Physical Therapy and Founder of Uprise Pelvic Health

I help women find strength and confidence through specialized physical therapy for pelvic health concerns. I aim to make uncomfortable topics approachable, to make life altering symptoms manageable, and to equip you with empowering and essential education. As a Doctor of Physical Therapy for over a decade, I have passionately pursued pelvic health as my specialty to help change the state of women’s healthcare. Pelvic health diagnoses like incontinence, prolapse and painful sex have been normalized for too long. I’m ecstatic when I get to share in my patients’ successes and show them they have the power to heal.

I treat with a variety of modalities including manual therapy, therapeutic exercise prescription, visceral manipulation, and dry needling. I also bring expertise in perinatal care as a Certified Pregnancy and Postpartum Corrective Exercise Specialist.

💖I’m a mom of two preschoolers, a lover of deep conversations, binge-worthy shows, and of coffee.

Licensed Physical Therapist

With over 20 years of pelvic health experience, I am privileged to work alongside women treating conditions that span pre-childbearing, childbearing, post-childbearing, menopausal and post-menopausal stages of life. The complexity of the human body, the personal and private nature of pelvic health conditions, and the need to look at the person as a whole led me to Uprise Pelvic Health!

I help you gain clarity on the best plan of care, especially when your search on social media and Google leaves you unsure. Caring for YOU is my inspiration to constantly learn more and expand my knowledge base. You matter to me. I am eager to teach you, provide treatment that will help you meet meaningful goals and set you on a path of self-care.

I am a Certified Pregnancy and Post-Partum Corrective Exercise Specialist, and have trained in the McKenzie Institute of Spine Care and the Herman and Wallace Pelvic Rehabilitation Institute. I apply conservative approaches of physical therapy including manual therapy, exercise prescription and most importantly, education.

I’m a mom of three and an Iowa native, but I’ve lived in Sioux Falls for 27 years. Long walks with my Golden Retriever are my favorite! 🐾🦮
