Meet the Atlanta Team

Katie Moise, PT, DPT

Katie founded ATL Pelvic Health in 2021 after recognizing the need for pelvic floor physical therapy specialized to women’s needs. However, her personal journey into pelvic health began well before then: After a hip injury sidelined her from running, she saw an orthopedic PT who referred her to a pelvic PT. From there, Katie’s eyes were opened to how many women of all ages likely experience similar symptoms without knowing where to turn. 

With ATL Pelvic Health, her goal is to educate, provide resources and guide people through caring for their bodies. There is still a large stigma around talking about peeing, pooping or sex, but she wants to normalize these topics.  

For many women, pelvic floor dysfunction can stem from pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum recovery. Although we treat clients (including men!) across all stages of life, she is proud that ATL Pelvic Health is changing the care available to new moms. Katie’s hope is that you can return to the activities you love without pain or peeing your pants.

Monica Ferrer, PT, DPT

Monica's passion for treating patients with pelvic floor dysfunction began during a women’s health course she took while completing her Doctorate of Physical Therapy at Emory University. It was through this experience she recognized how essential it is to integrate pelvic floor care with her orthopedic background in order to truly address the body as whole. Realizing the pelvic floor was often the missing piece in many treatment plans, she chose to specialize in this incredibly valuable area of physical therapy. She believes the pelvis is the foundation of the body and values the role it has in our activities of daily living. 

Her journey into physical therapy was inspired by a dance injury at a young age, which sparked her dedication to helping others heal. Monica has a strong orthopedic background, which has allowed her to implement a full-body approach during treatment sessions. Her treatment style blends a range of techniques including manual therapy, cupping, gua sha, dry needling, pilates, and specialized exercises. Her mission is to provide education, resources, and individualized exercise programs to help her patients achieve their physical therapy and personal goals. She is passionate about supporting patients dealing with bowel, bladder, or sexual functioning concerns, and finds great purpose in helping them regain their confidence and comfort within their bodies. Monica is also fluent in Spanish, allowing her to provide care and education in both English and Spanish. Monica aims to empower her patients and provide them with the tools they need so that they can return to activities they love doing without the fear of leaking or having pain!

Becca Sawyer, PT, DPT

Becca was drawn to pelvic health physical therapy in 2017 while pregnant with her daughter -experiencing first-hand how pregnancy and childbirth change a woman's body. Most mothers she meets have lingering pregnancy-related issues they want to address, such as diminished core strength, diastasis recti, leaking with high-impact activity, or pain during sex. As she has treated more women with persistent low back pain or achy hips, she sees these seemingly unrelated conditions can sometimes be addressed through focusing on the pelvic floor.

Pelvic health is a vital aspect of women's health, and she is passionate about improving access to pelvic floor PT in my community.

Since graduating from Mercer University in 2014 with a Doctorate in Physical Therapy, she has worked in a variety of settings to help patients heal their bodies and achieve their goals. She believes the best treatment plan incorporates not only a patient's symptoms and their causes, but also their unique perspective and personal experience of their condition. Her hope is to help you learn about and connect deeply to your body, and enjoy living in it.

When she is not treating patients, she enjoys camping and hiking with her family. She also loves yoga and meditation and frequently incorporates aspects of both into her treatments.

Facts About Becca:

• Born in Atlanta, Georgia and lives in Decatur

• Graduated from the University of Georgia in 2003

• Doctorate of Physical Therapy at Mercer University

• Advanced training:

  • Pelvic Health​ training through Herman and Wallace Rehabilitation Institute

  • Pregnancy and Postpartum Corrective Exercise Specialist
