Amy (she/her) graduated from the Master of Physical Therapy program at UBC in 2012 after completing a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance at Simon Fraser University. Dance has been a big part of her life from a young age and sparked a lifelong interest in movement and the human body, ultimately leading her on the path to becoming a physiotherapist.

She discovered pelvic floor physiotherapy after developing pubic symphysis pain, pelvic organ prolapse, and stress incontinence with her two pregnancies and deliveries. This firsthand experience motivated her to make a significant career shift and pursue her passion for pelvic health, which is now her main area of practice. She also has a special interest in treating overactive bladder and bladder pain, as well as sexual pain conditions such as vulvodynia and vaginismus.

Previously, she worked for many years with clients with neurological conditions such as stroke, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, and Parkinson’s disease, helping to improve their function and quality of life. This experience has greatly informed her whole person approach to treating pelvic health symptoms and understanding of the influence of the nervous system on all other body systems.

Amy is a lifelong learner and recently completed a two year mentorship at Diane Lee & Associates Physiotherapy in the Integrated Systems Model (ISM). When she’s not busy running after her two boys, you’ll find her at the karate dojo, out exploring the local trails or at the gym working on her deadlifts.
