Shaina is the founder and owner of Breakaway Physical Therapy. Shaina is an Ironman Triathlete, who uses her exercise time to think and clear her mind.
Shaina graduated from Towson University with a Bachelors in Chemistry and went on to get her DPT from University of Maryland, Baltimore. She started treating the pelvic floor population after having kids and seeing the amazing changes men, women and children can have in their life.
Her favorite activity is swimming and snowboarding, which led her to her career choice many years ago. She is a mother of four- Mason, Emma, Addison and Finley. She loves to spend time with her kids and take them on many adventures. They like to go fruit and vegetable picking, as well as to the beach in the summer. And they are always up for swimming, camping and hiking the outdoors together.
Brittany loves to travel with her fiancé. If she hasn’t been someplace yet she will soon. Ask her about her latest travels if you need any advice on your next trip. She is compassionate and loves to spend time with friends.
Brittany went to Penn State for her Kinesiology degree before heading to University of Maryland, Baltimore to earn her DPT. She started her career with a focus on the pelvic floor to be able to empower her patients and give them the tools that they need to be able to live their best life.
She loves trivia, yoga and the beach. Exploring new places and finding the excitement in new things adds to her being such a great therapist. She brings a great perspective to the office and has what it takes to help you.
Stephanie is a devoted runner and loves stay active. Stephanie brings that high level of commitment to her patients and understands the challenges of being a mom and what comes with that.
Stephanie graduated with her DPT from University of Maryland, Baltimore, where she was able to spend valuable time in the clinic to learning about pelvic floor physical therapy. She loves being to help all her patients return to the activities that they enjoy most, without having to live with pelvic floor dysfunction.
She is a mother of one and cherishes her son. She loves hiking and camping and just being outdoors with her husband and son. It’s hard to find someone so dedicated to what she does. Rest assured that if a solution exists Stephanie can find it.
Emily has exercise ADHD and changes her movement interest frequently. She enjoys yoga, hiking, cycling and rock climbing. Emily has a two-year-old son who frequently makes her laugh and challenges her at the same time.
Emily went to Towson University for her undergraduate degree and then went on to get her DPT from the University of Maryland, Baltimore. She spent some time shadowing a clinic where she was introduced to pelvic floor PT and knew that she needed to learn more about this specialty.
She and Caroline are in competition for the most books read for the year. She never knows what to make for dinner...so what are you having tonight?
I graduated from Arizona State University with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Exercise and Wellness.
I love to go on walks, exercise, dance, and spend time with my husband and friends! I used to dance and cheer back in high school. I tore my ACL when I joined the cheer team which lead me to go to physical therapy and I instantly fell in love with it! That is how I decided I wanted to get into this field!
Working here at Breakaway has been amazing! I joined in November of 2019 and I feel like I made a whole new family instantly. I am so happy that I am apart of a team that challenges each other to do better each day. I feel like I am learning more about myself and growing because of everyone I work with. I am learning new skills, and doing things I never thought I would do. Working here has made me even more excited about my future and what I can do. It has also made me see that I can do a lot more than what I set for myself!
I graduated from Purdue University with a degree in Billing and Coding in 2020.
Family time is the most important time for me! I love to be with my 11-month-old daughter and husband.
Baking cakes is something I like to do in my free time and interior decorating always get my brain and creativity going.
I am loving everything that I am learning at Breakaway Physical Therapy and so excited to be a part of the team!
My relaxation and all-time favorite place are warm, sandy beaches.
Caitie is currently a junior at the University of Maryland in College Park majoring in kinesiology and minoring in human development .
I’m interested in applying to PT school in 2 years and am super excited for the opportunity at Breakaway to learn more about Physical Therapy and gain experience in the field.
I played soccer for almost 14 years right up until I started college, but now I really only play for fun in intramural leagues at UMD.
In my free time I enjoy listening to music, hanging out with friends, going out on the boat, playing soccer and working out whenever I get the chance.
While I have not been a part of the team for very long, I already feel as though I am a part of a family and am surrounded with amazing people who are happy to show and teach me new things. I always leave with new knowledge that I will remember forever.
Jordan graduated from Drew University with a Bachelor in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.
I enjoy dancing, hiking, exercising, and spending time with friends and family. I was a gymnast throughout my childhood and coached gymnastics during college. As a gymnast, I sustained injuries that required going to physical therapy, which is where my inspiration to someday work in the field started.
Working at Breakaway has confirmed my goals of wanting to work in physical therapy because of the wonderful atmosphere and the common goal of helping people feel their best and reach their goals. It is a great work place with extremely supportive and friendly coworkers where I feel like I am constantly learning new things!
