More about my guest:

Dr. Caitlin Keller is a pediatric physical therapist with a deep passion for helping children overcome bowel and bladder challenges. After earning her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Springfield College, she specialized in pediatrics and, in 2015, began focusing on pediatric pelvic health. In 2020, she founded Unconstipated Kids—a practice dedicated to compassionate, whole-body care for children with toileting difficulties.

At Unconstipated Kids, we take a holistic, collaborative approach, recognizing that toileting success isn’t just about the pelvic floor—it’s about the whole child. Our team of occupational and physical therapists works together to address muscle coordination, sensory processing, posture, reflexes, and emotional well-being. By tailoring treatment to each child's unique needs, we empower families with practical strategies for lasting success.

Beyond her work, Dr. Caitlin finds joy in family life with her husband and children, along with a wide array of hobbies—from dancing and hiking to baking and crocheting. She is endlessly grateful for the opportunity to serve families, guided by faith, love, and a deep appreciation for the work she feels called to do.

She also offers a provider mentorship group with her business partner through LittleLearning Lav. It’s perfect for anyone looking to start or continue their pediatric pelvic health approach. Find it here.

More about my guest:
Kary’s professional roles include being an occupational therapist, entrepreneur, consultant, and educator/guide to future OTPs, to name a few. A role central to today's conversation is her role as the Director of Community Engagement at SOLACE Foundation.

Finding a way (and ways) together is central to her work.  She credits a small town upbringing and starting her career in healthcare as an addiction counselor with laying the foundation for her passion for working in settings and on projects where resources may be less obvious (or even limited) and yet infinite possibilities exist by noticing, building and maintaining relationships and networks.

It also has guided her focus in the occupational therapy profession. The learnings from these experiences have led her to her latest endeavors that are focused more on collective occupational needs than individuals alone; recognizing the interconnection of these occupations requires increased community-level collaboration and attention.  It is this awareness that fuels Kary’s commitment to convening and participating in spaces where being in process (as opposed to reaching solid conclusions) is expected, welcomed, and celebrated.   

Collaboration and curiosity are two things she values most. If you have questions or collaboration ideas, you can reach her at [email protected].
