Bria Alston

Bria was born in Baltimore and raise here in Woodbridge. She's provided excellent customer service since she started in the workforce at a young age; however, her interest in physical therapy became clear as she joined the team in October 2023. As the face of the clinic, she has already made an impact! She uses her skills in time management and great customer service to make sure the clinic runs as smoothly as possible, all while maintaining a positive attitude! Eventually, she would like to return to school to become a licensed behavioral therapist specializing in mental health disorders and trauma counseling. In her free time, she enjoys spending time with her family and friends, singing her heart out, and relaxing with a good TV series.
