About Danielle: “My Journey in the healthcare field began as an Athletic Trainer. My decision to pursue my passion in the physical therapy field started when I realized that I had the desire to know so much more about the human body and numerous types of injuries and conditions. I strongly believe that each individual case is unique and should be treated as a new puzzle to solve. I love this career and I am devoted to helping individuals achieve their goals and improve their quality of life. I am enthusiastic to be part of the OMPT team because I have seen how beneficial one-on-one therapy is and I believe every person deserves the highest quality of care.”

Danielle has experience orthopedics, neurological rehabilitation, inpatient rehabilitation, and is most experienced in sports rehabilitation, specifically soccer. Danielle received the “Manual Therapy Excellence Award” from Oakland University.
