Meet the Team

Kirstin Carpenter PT, MPT
Regional Director
Kirstin Carpenter PT, MPT
Regional DirectorKirstin Carpenter was born and raised in Olathe, KS. She knew in high school that physical therapy was the right career choice for her. Kirstin has always had a interest in anatomy and staying active through exercise. Physical therapy blended these two interests together perfectly.
Kirstin loves treating the orthopedic population, but found another love for pelvic floor rehab 7 years into her career. Experiencing her own pelvic floor dysfunction after the birth of her two daughters Kirstin pursued education in pelvic floor rehab so she could fix herself. Her first pelvic floor class in 2009 opened her eyes to the depth of information available, but that this information was not widely known. Kirstin returned to the clinic with a new passion to help women who suffer from pelvic floor dysfunction and began the pelvic floor specialty for Preferred Physical Therapy.
Since 2009 Kirstin has expanded pelvic floor treatment to include men and the pediatric population. Kirstin loves learning and developing new skills to help her patients overcome the many challenges that come with musculoskeletal dysfunctions. In 2014 she became certified in Lymphedema therapy and in 2017 became certified in dry needling. In 2020 Kirstin also became an ASTYM provider.
In 2017 Kirstin accepted the role of Regional Manager for all of Preferred Physical Therapy. She enjoys working with all Preferred PT employees and helping the new generation of physical therapists develop their own skills and specialties.
