A short biography:
I graduated from Liège University (Belgium) in 1989 with a B.S. in Physical Therapy, and from Des
Moines University with a Doctorate in Physical Therapy in 2008.
Worked as the resident representative of Handicap International in Laos from 89 to 91, treating
special needs children and amputees, and teaching Physical Therapy.
I then came to the US where I specialized in orthopedics with an emphasis on back and neck
problems and sports injuries.
Because my husband's job requires him to live overseas, I have volunteered and setup private
practices in Laos, Taiwan, China, Burma and Austria.
I work with Inova Loudoun Hospital on a as needed basis in the neonatal intensive care unit.
I hold a physical therapy license in Virginia, D.C. and Belgium, was trained in Myofascial Release
and am certified as a Feldenkrais practitioner in the US and Austria. I am also a certified
Ergonomics Assessments Specialist and a registered therapeutic riding instructor.
I completed the Mastery for children advanced training for the Anat Baniel method in Janaury 2010.
Languages spoken: French and English.
I am a member of the following professional organizations:
-The American Physical therapy Association (APTA)
-Path International
-The American Hippotherapy Association (AHA)
-The Feldenkrais Guild of North America (FGNA)

My treatment philosophy:
- You should be in control of every aspect of your treatment, and therefore should be given all
the information you need to make an informed decision. There are no stupid questions, and no
maximum number of times something needs to be clarified. We will discuss any issue until you
feel that you have understood it thoroughly. - Pain should not be part of the treatment.
- If you know what you do, you can do what you want.
- In never giving up: together we will get you better.
- That at the end of each session, you should have learned a little bit more about how to use
yourself efficiently and without pain. - That one should never stop learning.
