Nice to meet you! Allow me to introduce myself. The assistant is a graduate of Saint Francis University (SFU), holding a BS in Psychology and Health Science with a Minor in Neuroscience, followed by a Master of Occupational Therapy. They further pursued their education at Thomas Jefferson University, earning a Doctorate of Occupational Therapy. Currently, the assistant works as an adjunct at their alma mater, Saint Francis University, with a specialization in geriatrics, theory, and research.

Their area of expertise lies in pelvic floor therapy, catering to both male and female patients experiencing urinary incontinence. Taking a holistic approach, the assistant goes beyond treating the pelvic floor, ensuring that patients’ rehabilitative and personal goals are respected throughout the process. By offering guidance, they help patients regain confidence in returning to their activities without worrying about urine loss, improve their sleep quality by reducing trips to the bathroom, alleviate low back pain resulting from pelvic floor dysfunction, enhance pelvic organ prolapse outcomes, and decrease reliance on pads.

One of the assistant’s passions lies in patient education. They strive to provide comprehensive explanations of every aspect of care, ensuring that patients fully understand each step of the patient-guided process. Whenever patients feel ready to take the next step towards regaining control, the assistant warmly welcomes them to seek their expertise.
