Kaitlin is a Licensed massage therapist, physical theater artist and 4th-generation Brooklynite. Her bodywork modalities include Swedish massage, myofascial release, prenatal massage, sports massage, and shiatsu & acupressure. Kaitlin also works professionally as a pediatric hospital clown at Hassenfeld Children's Hospital. She strives to bring a similar joyful levity to her massage practice. Through her hospital clowning and performance work, she has cultivated deep and easeful listening skills that allow her to meet her clients where they are. In her bodywork, she aims to create a judgement-free space for clients to unwind, center, and reconnect with themselves. She works diligently to cultivate a practice that is anti-racist, queer- and trans-friendly, and trauma-informed.
