⭐️ Meet Taylor Knapp, MOTR/L!!
We’re so excited to introduce one of the newest members of our Bridgeport Physical Therapy team — Taylor Knapp, Occupational Therapist at our Main Street location!
Taylor brings compassion, skill, and a true passion for helping patients regain independence in the activities that matter most. Here’s a little more about her 👇
💬 What inspired you to become an Occupational Therapist?
“When I was in middle school, I broke my arm and went through five surgeries to regain function. During that time, I spent a lot of time in OT, and I knew I wanted to help people in the same way when I grew up.”
💬 How long have you been practicing, and when did you join our team?
“I’ve been practicing for 4.5 years, and I joined the Bridgeport PT family in September after moving to the area.”
💬 What areas of OT are you most passionate about?
“Upper extremity rehab is where my heart is! My goal is to become a Certified Hand Therapist (CHT) whenever I can.”
💬 What advice do you give patients to stay motivated?
“Progress is not linear. There will be good days and bad days, but if you stick to the plan, we’ll get you closer to your goals.”
💬 How do you personalize treatment plans?
“OT is all about making treatments meaningful and functional. I tailor activities to simulate the tasks that matter most to each individual patient.”
💬 Where did you grow up or go to school?
“I grew up in Wirt County and earned my MOT degree from WVU.”
💬 What do you enjoy doing outside of work?
“My biggest blessing is spending time with my 5-month-old son, Jace, and my husband, Tristan. I love cooking and baking, riding my bike on the rail trail, and I’m also a cheer coach!”
💬 Favorite local restaurant?
“Apple Annie’s!”
💬 Fun fact that might surprise patients:
“I love to hunt! I spend the whole week of Thanksgiving in the woods with my dad and nephew.”
💬 Do you have any pets?
“Yes! I have an Australian Shepherd named Zuko.”

We are so proud to have Taylor on our team — her dedication, warmth, and passion for helping others fit perfectly with our mission of Changing Rehab, Changing Lives. ❤️🖤
