Stacia Roberts, CMT / Certified Massage Therapist, Boulder Clinic
As a Colorado native, Stacia was blessed with the opportunity to grow up camping, backpacking and cross country skiing. She still enjoys these activities and spends her free time hiking in the high country. Her love of new experiences and adventure enticed Stacia to spend much of her 20’s traveling. Her destinations included Nepal, China, Thailand, Sumatra and Central America. The birth of her daughter curtailed her freedom to traipse across the globe, but began the next, equally exciting journey through parenthood.
Stacia and her almost-grown daughter have been living in Boulder for the past twelve years where they enjoy the proximity of family, open space and the incredible offerings of the Rocky Mountains. They feel it is a true blessing to be living in the unique atmosphere of The Republic of Boulder.

Stacia is a 1988 graduate of the Boulder School of Massage Therapy and has extensive injury rehabilitation experience. She has a dynamic continuing education resume which focuses on treatment-oriented massage modalities, including a certification in neuromuscular therapy. She has also taken multiple other trainings with content varying from body-centered psychotherapy to leadership. She is also a recent graduate of the Biology Department of CU Boulder where she focused on human physiology.

Stacia took over the responsibilities of Massage Director at Mountain’s Edge Fitness Center in June 2007. She has been busy remodeling, redeveloping and redirecting their Massage Clinic into a vibrant department with a contingent of talented therapists.

Andrea Kidd / Office Manager, Boulder and Brighton Clinics
Andrea is a rare Colorado native. She grew up in Estes Park, where she graduated from high school. Soon afterwards she decided to move to Steamboat Springs to do a little snowboarding and attend Colorado Mountain College. After Steamboat she moved to Houston, Texas, where she withstood the humidity for four years before returning to her home state of Colorado in 2002.
Prior to employment with Peak Form Physical Therapy, Andrea spent five years running and managing her family’s business in Lyons, Colorado. After serving the local community for seventeen great years, the family decided to sell the business in June 2007. After taking the summer off to spend time with her sister and her kids from Texas, she finally decided that she had played long enough and landed a job with Peak Form Physical Therapy. Even though Andrea was new to the medical field she was a quick learner and soon assumed the position of Office Manager.

Andrea enjoys traveling and is excited to try new things and places. Having been to England, Austria, Holland, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Jamaica, Australia, and Mexico, she hopes to someday retire in Italy, or at least be able to go there often. When Andrea is not at work, she enjoys being with her family and friends. She takes pleasure in hiking, snowboarding, skydiving and scuba diving, and she is always up for a new adventure.

Jessica Theriault / Front Desk, Brighton Clinic
Jessica joined Peak Form Physical Therapy in September 2007 and really enjoys meeting all the new people. Jessica is in her second year of college and is majoring in Criminal Justice. Her goals are to become an FBI Agent or Homicide Detective, which explains another interest: Court TV!

Jessica has resided in Brighton, CO for the past fourteen years. While she was born in the south, and is her mom’s “Southern Belle,” she has traveled throughout the US. Traveling is an addiction not easily quit and she hopes to pass it on to her favorite traveling partner, her two-year-old daughter. They’ve already toured California, Maine, New York and New Mexico together and have many more trips planned in the future. When stuck indoors, Jessica loves dancing, singing, and reading, but as soon as summer hits, you’ll find her outside camping, hiking, river rafting, or simply out for a walk.

Emily Hansen / Front Desk, Physical Therapy Technician, Boulder and Brighton Clinics
Emily was born in California, but grew up in Austin, Texas, where she graduated high school in 2002. The mountains lured her to Colorado and she decided to do her undergraduate work at CU. After two long, boring years as a Biology major she switched to Integrative Physiology. She graduated in December 2007 with a bachelor's degree, and she is currently in the application process to attend physical therapy school in the Denver area. It is her goal to graduate with a DPT and continue on as a physical therapist in the great state of Colorado.

To relax she enjoys reading, playing the flute, knitting, and watching movies. Some of her favorite activities are yoga, step aerobics, and hiking. She loves exploring the Denver area with her dog, Merlin - he's always by her side, and if you visit the office on the right day you may get to meet him! She loves to travel to new places and has been lucky enough to visit France, Italy, Mexico, and Hawaii, although her ultimate vacation would be a flight to outer space. She also helps her mother on her alpaca ranch, so feel free to ask questions if you're curious!

Suzi Carlson / Billing Coordinator, Boulder and Brighton Clinics
Suzi was born in eastern Colorado where she grew up with her family and graduated from high school in 1995. Coming from a small farming community she ventured to the "Big City" of Longmont where she met and married her better half. They moved to Platteville, another small farm community, to start their life together. They became a family with the addition of a daughter, Sami, in the fall of 1996.

Suzi stayed at home and raised their little munchkin until she began pre-school in the fall of 2000. Upon this turning of the page she decided to get a job working at a clinic in Longmont. She trained there and was then sent to school in Dallas, TX to become efficient in insurance billing and coding. Suzi started her own billing service in 2003, billing for chiropractic and physical therapy clinics. She has now been with Peak Form Physical Therapy for two years and is proud to continue to serve the clinic and the patients’ needs in the insurance field.

When not arguing with the insurance companies, Suzi enjoys spending her time with her husband Jeff and daughter Sami. They love camping, fishing, golfing, and spending time with their extended family. She also loves to coach volleyball for the middle school and recreation center in her community. She's still an avid player herself playing on women’s and co-ed competitive teams.
