About Us

Dr. Emily opened Be You Physical Therapy & Wellness in June 2022 in order to be able to provide care for patients in a way that was in their best interests, not the insurance companies. Raised in Michigan and schooled in Wisconsin, she spent 10 years treating thousands of patients in the San Francisco Bay Area before deciding Colorado was where she wanted to be.

Dr. Emily specializes in manual therapy – a hands-on approach to discovering and treating a broad range of orthopedic conditions – and loves working with and getting to know her patients. She’s a Board Certified Orthopedic Certified Specialist (OCS) and Credentialed Clinical Instructor. Her additional certifications in TRX sports medicine, Astym, and functional dry needling help her rehab various orthopedic injuries while also working to maintain whole body health. 

Dr. Emily was drawn to physical therapy at a young age when she attended (and was allowed to help with) therapy sessions for her older sister who was recovering from a spinal cord injury sustained in a plane crash. She went on to receive her Bachelors of Science in Biomedical Sciences (2004) and her Doctor of Physical Therapy (2006) from Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

On a personal note, Dr. Emily loves adventure and experiencing all life has to offer. She adores her family and friends, especially her nieces and nephew back in Michigan. Her travels have taken her to the savannas of Africa, the mountains of Argentina and Peru, the islands of the Caribbean and all over the U.S. She’s also developed a palette for fine wines and a penchant for playing recreational sports.
