About

Hi! My name is Alyssa, and I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy with a passion for treating expecting and postpartum mothers! A quick background of my education: I earned my Bachelor’s Degree with honors in Health Science Studies with a minor in psychology from Quinnipiac University, and my Doctoral Degree (DPT) from Kean University.

My passion for working with pregnant and postpartum clients began during one of my clinical rotations, in which I assisted a newly postpartum woman in safely returning to CrossFit. Since that time, I have specialized training in Obstetrics through the APTA and Pelvic Floor through Herman & Wallace.

The most rewarding feeling is meeting with a new client, talking about their concerns, then seeing the visible relief when they discover that PT can help them. This feeling is why Expecting Well was created. So many women aren’t informed that the pain they feel during pregnancy can be helped, or that they don’t have to deal with leaking when laughing, or that there is more than one position to labor or deliver in that can reduce risk of tearing.

A huge goal of mine is to spread this information so that obstetric and pelvic health PT can become a regular service for expecting and postpartum mothers, no matter how far into the postpartum period they are.

But most importantly, my goal is to help you get back to what you love doing, without pain and without other limitations! I’d love to talk with you and hope we meet soon!
