Based in Boston, MA | Serving Greater Boston

Who I Work With

I specialize in working with adults and older adults who value thoughtful, individualized care, particularly those who:

  • Have experienced a neurological injury or diagnosis, including stroke, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, or progressive neurological conditions

  • Are adjusting to life after hospitalization, surgery, or complex medical illness

  • Want to improve strength, endurance, and mobility following cardiopulmonary or medical decline

  • Are aging and wish to maintain balance, safety, and independence at home

  • Are at risk for falls or seeking targeted balance training to reduce fall risk

  • Prefer high-quality, private care without the constraints of a busy clinic environment

About Me

I am a licensed Doctor of Physical Therapy specializing in neurologic, cardiopulmonary, and geriatric rehabilitation. With over seven years of experience across inpatient and outpatient settings — including serving as a Level II Advanced Clinician within the Spaulding Rehabilitation Network and earning my Certified Brain Injury Specialist (CBIS) credential — I provide expert, personalized care directly in your home.

I work with individuals recovering from stroke, brain injury, spinal cord injury, complex medical illness, and age-related mobility challenges. My approach blends strong clinical reasoning with compassion, education, and respect for where each person is in their recovery.

I believe physical therapy works best when it is personal, unhurried, and grounded in real life. Treating you in your home allows us to focus on what truly matters — safety, confidence, independence, and quality of life.

I would be honored to support you in reaching your goals.
