As a birth doula and perinatal movement specialist, Kate has been one of the most valuable resources for my pregnant and postpartum clients. I refer so many of them to Kate to help address issues like pelvic pain, incontinence, prolapse, and hip/back pain. Kate also works with many of my doula clients on connecting with pelvic floor lengthening in various positions in preparation for labor and birth. I find that clients who are able to work with Kate are much more effective with pushing even if an epidural is used. Kate has so much expertise when it comes to pelvic health and I love having a collaborative partner like Kate, who I can trust and work together with to support clients in the most holistic and integrative way. I can't recommend Kate enough for anyone who is in need of a pelvic floor therapist. She is truly amazing!

Kate was an amazing physical therapist and the key to my postpartum recovery! After the birth of my baby I was having EXCRUCIATING back pain. I went to my OB, the ER, and to other different specialists but no one could figure out what was wrong with me! It wasn't until I went to Kate & she said "I think its your ribs." And she was right! It's because of her assessments & care that I was able to get off of my narcotics & recover safely postpartum. I will forever be grateful for help & would definitely recommend her to anyone! She's amazing!

I recently underwent carpal tunnel syndrome surgery, and I can't express enough gratitude for the exceptional care and support provided by Kate. From the moment i began my recovery journey, she demonstrated unmatched professionalism, expertise, genuine compassion. Throughout each session, Kate tailored my rehabilitation plan to address my specific needs and limitations, ensuring steady progress and minimizing discomfort. Thanks again Kate!!! Danny.

I am so glad I saw Kate before my son's birth. She checked pelvic floor tone and taught the best pushing techniques for my body. I was able to deliver vaginally with no trauma.

Kate is an excellent physical therapist! After the birth of my second baby, I had pain everywhere (back, neck, shoulders, arms and some diastasis recti and pelvic floor issues). My midwives recommended Kate, and I'm so glad that she's been my physical therapist! I've been seeing her for a few months and my pain has decreased, and I feel stronger. Kate is always empathetic, professional and very knowledgeable. (I wish I would've worked with her while I was pregnant too!) Also, her office is in a good location, and it's nice to have physical therapy in a private room.

Dr. Kate is amazing and so knowledgeable! I initially saw her for Pelvic Floor issues. My life has changed - literally. I now actually pass bathrooms rather than visiting them whenever I am out. My son joked that the bathroom was my 'natural habitat' because I was always in it. Often, I sleep through the night without waking to pee. During the day, I go for several hours. I no longer have to find the bathroom whenever we go someplace new because I may be out and not have to go. Not having it on my mind constantly is a relief! I also worked with Dr. Kate on pain in my abdomen from GI issues. My pain is significantly decreased. Dr. Kate uses a variety of methods and techniques to treat any soreness in your body. She has a variety of exercises to suggest for any ailment as well. However, she always offers it in a manageable daily program to not overwhelm me with too many exercises. Dr. Kate is also humble and has a quiet confidence. She is one of the easiest doctors that I've ever engaged with. No matter how personal the topic is, Dr. Kate puts you at ease to discuss it. I highly recommend her!

Amazing physical therapist, got a referral from my midwife. I saw Kate through late pregnancy and through postpartum and it was a completely different experience in terms of recovery and regaining my old routine and strength back. Helped me get through two homebirths and recover from them!

Kate is an incredible physical therapist - she is extremely knowledgable, professional, and responsive. She has helped me come back from numerous sports and life related injuries (pulled hamstring, strained pectoral, knee tendonitis, etc) and is always there to get me healthy!
