PT, DPT, (She/her) | Seattle - North Seattle

"I believe in strong collaboration between patient and provider — movement is a powerful tool for us to help people reach their goals."

As a dancer, physical therapy had a big impact on Tia’s life. Her favorite part of PT is seeing patients from beginning to end in their rehab journeys. She loves integrating her dancing and movement background into a healing profession. Tia is a member of the APTA and special interest groups for neurology, orthopaedics, and sports rehabilitation.
