My name is Barb and I have been a physical therapist for 20 years.  I graduated with my Masters of Science in Physical Therapy from Central Michigan University.  I have had the great pleasure of working with children for over 15 years. I have worked with many complex diagnoses throughout my career in both Early Intervention and outpatient services.  My philosophy is to promote a safe and friendly environment where children can learn and grow through play and activities.  I work closely with parents to educate and empower them so that together we can provide the care their child needs.  Together we establish a plan of care that is focused on improving function and increasing independence. 

I currently live in Portage with my husband and two children.  Family is very important to me and I cherish my time with them.  We enjoy camping, fishing, hiking, and traveling.
