Welcome to you by Fortitude & Fortitude Physiotherapy, I am so glad that you are here.

A little bit about me.

I am a born and bred Cooma, NSW local and started Fortitude Physiotherapy after realising there were some pretty significant gaps in the physiotherapy space in our rural area. I LOVE the Monaro and always knew this is where I wanted to use my degree and what I have learnt.

In 2010, I completed a Bachelor of Physiotherapy at the University of Newcastle, graduating and qualified in APPI Equipment level 1-4.

On returning home from University in 2010, I became a member of the Cooma Fillies and Bombala High Heelers, winning four premierships with both clubs. Over the years I have been an active member of the Cooma Rugby Club; Cooma Stallions and Bombala Heelers rugby league clubs, as well playing netball in the local Cooma competition. Sport and the Monaro is in my blood and I love that I have been able to make a contribution in our community in this way.

I have a deep desire for people to experience, not only good, quality healthcare, but also to understand that access shouldn't be denied due to your circumstances. This applies to getting stronger and more flexible.

In 2018 my partner Ben & I welcomed Charlotte and Clancy in 2020. This gave me a new perspective on what the body is capable of, but also the shortcomings in recovering from pregnancy and labour, especially in rural areas.

My interests in physiotherapy lie in Musculoskeletal and Women's Health physiotherapy, as well as Pilates, and this has become a driving force for the changes taking place at Fortitude Physiotherapy.

I am so excited to be able to provide you with movement, mindfulness and exercise anywhere, anytime.

I am here to support you and be with you every step of the way, whether you are a beginner or advanced this space is for you.

Thank you for being here.
