As the founder of 4 Steps Forward, I bring together my over a decade-long experience as a human physiotherapist and my lifelong passion for animal care. My journey began with a childhood dream of becoming a veterinarian, which evolved into a successful career in physiotherapy working across the country, and internationally. To develop the skills required for working with animals I completed a 2 year Postgraduate Diploma in Veterinary Physiotherapy, and am thrilled to be fulfilling my lifelong passion by caring for your pets.

Qualifications and Experience:

• Bachelor of Science (Physiotherapy), Curtin University, 2013
• Postgraduate Diploma in Veterinary Physiotherapy, University of Liverpool, 2023
• 14 years of physiotherapy experience, including paediatric and respiratory specialisations
• Worked in diverse settings across Australia and internationally
• Dog training courses completed through IMDT (institute of modern dog trainers)

My Approach

At 4 Steps Forward, I believe in a holistic approach to animal care. By applying proven physiotherapy techniques adapted for animals, I aim to enhance their mobility, reduce pain, and improve overall well-being. My services are tailored to each animal’s specific needs, whether they’re recovering from an injury, managing a chronic condition, or simply aiming to maintain optimal health.

My unique combination of human and animal physiotherapy expertise allows me to offer innovative, effective treatments. I’m committed to staying at the forefront of animal physiotherapy, constantly learning and adapting techniques to provide the best possible care.

Personal Touch

When I’m not helping animals, you’ll find me training my Australian Shepherd, Ember, exploring the beautiful South West outdoors, or engaging in activities that keep me connected to the animal world.
