Hi, I'm Dr. Katie
I'm a Doctor of Physical Therapy and I built Healing Grounds PT with one person in mind: the active woman who's been told to "just rest" — and knows that's not the answer.
I grew up in South Florida playing competitive soccer my entire life up until college. I had opportunities to play for multiple D1 schools — I was living my dream — but injuries held me back. That experience was the first spark in becoming a Physical Therapist, and when I truly discovered my passion for injury prevention and helping people move with purpose.
I tore my own meniscus and hip labrum and was handed the same generic advice. I didn't accept it, and I built a practice around what actually works: specific, smart, active rehab for women who refuse to slow down.
My clients squat, hike, lift, and move pain-free — not because they had surgery, but because they finally got a real plan for their hips.
