Jessica Belkowski brings her passion and love of learning to her work daily. She obtained her Bachelor’s of Science in Biology at Franciscan University of Steubenville, followed by her Master’s of Science in Occupational Therapy from Thomas Jefferson University in 2018 and became a Certified Hand Therapist in 2024. She has experience in a variety of inpatient and outpatient settings, working with patients with neuro, chronic pain, and upper extremity diagnoses. She believes that the best approach to rehabilitation is to empower patients to learn about their conditions and become equal partners in the work of recovery and increased function. Jessica is a self-proclaimed therapy nerd and has a particular interest in hypermobile diagnoses such as Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and can usually be found researching more on that topic, or any other hand therapy related topic.

In her spare time, she volunteers on the Education Committee for the American Society of Hand Therapists, and also loves to spend time with her family, be outside, and tend her garden.

I believe in a holistic, preventative approach to care that focuses on treating the whole person, not just a diagnosis. As an occupational therapist, I work closely with patients to help them improve function, maintain independence, and achieve meaningful goals that enhance their quality of life. My clinical interests include orthopedic rehabilitation, geriatric care, and neurorehabilitation, and I enjoy helping individuals navigate challenges related to injury, illness, and the aging process. I value building strong therapeutic relationships and empowering patients with the tools, strategies, and confidence they need to succeed both during therapy and beyond. I grew up in Scranton, PA and attended the University of Scranton for my Bachelor’s and Master’s Degree’s. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors, exploring new hobbies, and caring for my ever-growing collection of houseplants.

After being a patient himself at a young age, Jake realized how important physical therapy is for people to return to everything they want to do. He believes in open and honest conversations with all patients and building a treatment plan together to make sure patients get exactly what they want and need out of their physical therapy treatment. Helping his patients achieve their goals and seeing them get back to not only what they need to do but also what they want to do makes this career very rewarding. He attended Kutztown University for his Bachelor of Science in Biology and Desales University for his Doctor of Physical Therapy degree. Going into physical therapy school, Jake thought he wanted to focus on orthopedics; however, he found the neurological patient populations more challenging and interesting, leading him to want to focus and treat those patients throughout his clinical education and now as a practicing clinician. Outside of work, he continues to practice what he preaches, enjoying regular strength training and cardio as well as his own dynamic balance training (after being labeled a fall risk the first year of DPT school). Besides regular exercise, he also enjoys spending time with his dog and family, as well as hiking when the weather is nice enough.
