Hi all, I’m Michelle.

I am a native Rhode Islander with a passion for treating people where they are at. I believe that everyone comes to Physical Therapy with their own personal story and often complex history. I do not impose my own values and goals on any person. My mission each and every day is to arrive with an open heart and mind for my patients/clients. Your questions and concerns will be addressed with respect, privacy and honesty. I will strive to provide you with a safe space where you can communicate freely. I believe in empowering people to take ownership of their health and goals while acting as a facilitator in each individual’s healing process. I approach patient care with deep gratitude and hold space for each individuals’ life story.
