Stephanie earned her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from The George Washington University. She began her career at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, MD, specializing in wound care in both inpatient and outpatient settings. Later, she expanded her expertise in Northern Virginia working in home health, providing both wound care and traditional physical therapy services.
Becoming a parent sparked Stephanie’s interest in pelvic health, a passion that grew while living abroad in Germany. There, she experienced a different model of pre- and post-partum care, which inspired her to deepen her training. Upon returning to the U.S., she completed specialized training through the Herman & Wallace Institute and practiced in outpatient orthopedics and pelvic health.
Stephanie joined Athena Wellness to provide care that reflects her values: holistic, individualized, and low-stress.
Outside of work, Stephanie enjoys life with her husband and two children. She has also discovered a love for Olympic weightlifting, finding joy in challenging herself and getting stronger with the barbell.
