How it has been 1.5 years since I did an introduction, I do not know 😳
At any rate, hello! I’m Dr. Katie! I’ve been a practicing clinician since 2011. The PNW has always been home and I often think if I were to leave, “where would I go?”
I began my women’s health journey in PT school when I became enamored with helping women who struggled with basic functions (bowel, bladder, s3xual) and started my clinical education and post-doctoral studies in my third year of my graduate program. As the saying goes, the rest is history!
I became certified in dry needling in 2015 and use it as a main modality clinically. It has transformed both my life and the lives of many others physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
Exercise and music have always been my medium. I grew up a competitive dancer and at 16, was accepted to attend Joffrey Ballet in Chicago (which I declined because I didn’t want to leave my boyfriend at the time 🤦🏻♀️ 🙄). As a senior in high school, I struggled to know if I should pursue collegiate studies or performing arts. After getting cut at my Juilliard audition in my first year of college, I reconciled it was the Lord’s plan for me to complete the former and I have no regrets!
I became a mama in my 30s and my son is my greatest joy and will always be my most prized calling. Walking life with him and having the chance to steward over such an incredible human is the coolest thing in the world.
I love coffee, sunshine and CrossFit. I am a water baby to my core; give me a paddle board and a body of water, and I am immeasurably happy! As I’ve said before, I love to hold stories and I cannot wait to hear yours! Thanks for stopping by!
