Elisabeth Petras

DPT

Elisabeth graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Biology from the University of Washington in 2016, before returning to the UW to earn her Doctor of Physical Therapy in 2023. During her physical therapy program, she completed clinical experiences at Seattle Children’s inpatient rehabilitation unit and in early intervention services. From a young age, Elisabeth has always known that she would work in the pediatric field. She spent much of her high school, college, and post-college years volunteering and working part-time with children. She is thrilled to now be a part of the team at Children’s Therapy of Woodinville. 

Elisabeth enjoys working with babies and children of all ages and abilities. She loves forming genuine connections with children and their families and believes in partnering with families to achieve the best possible outcomes. She strives to bring compassion and fun to every therapy session in order to create a supportive and encouraging atmosphere where children can thrive and meet physical therapy goals. Elisabeth has experience working with children with a wide range of diagnoses, including Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, Down Syndrome, toe walking, torticollis, genetic disorders, gross motor developmental delays, motor coordination difficulties, and orthopedic conditions. 

In her spare time, Elisabeth enjoys spending time with her family, weight lifting, and knitting. She is also an avid Star Wars and Marvel fan and enjoys exploring those universes through movies, shows, and conversations with fellow fans.
