We do this by helping them understand physical changes associated with development and aging and optimizing movement for pain free physical health and wellness. We help people via an individualized movement plan for each patient. We are Physical Therapy and Wellness to Move You Forward!
Kayla Mowdy, Owner
I am a learner, a helper, and an analyzer. Types 1, 3, and 5 if you are into the Enneagram stuff. I have always looked for my next challenge in life and my career. My adult life has been marked by milestones of becoming a PT first, then a wife, then a mom, and then a business owner. I have 2 children and 2 Physical Therapy clinics (and a very supportive husband)!
I built my first clinic, Future Physical Therapy in Foley AL, in 2020 to increase the availability of Pelvic Health services into an area that is not only lacking in availability of these services, but also has little knowledge of what exactly a Pelvic Floor PT does for our patients.
In 2023, we moved home to Meridian MS and have opened Future Family Center, Physical Therapy & Wellness, to provide excellent physical therapy care with a wellness mindset to those living in Meridian and surrounding areas. With this clinic we will be impacting lives in all areas of physical therapy, from birth to advanced age, but my specialty in Pelvic Health Physical Therapy and NOW Lactation counseling will be my personal primary focus at this clinic.
Mariah Denton, Doctor of Physical Therapy
I grew up in the greater Seattle area and have enjoyed living in several states from coast to coast. I'm thrilled to now be in Meridian with my husband and our two dogs. We love traveling, cooking, and dancing together. My favorite place so far has been Germany and my dream is to become fluent in German- though I’m a little out of practice now!
While living on the west coast, I taught ballroom dancing and competed professionally. I’ve always been passionate about helping people move, so becoming a physical therapist was a natural next step for me. I’ve found dance to be an invaluable tool in physical therapy, especially for those with balance impairments and neurological conditions.
Not into dancing? No problem! I’m all about working with my patients to think outside the box and find solutions that best fit each individual situation. From back pain to TMJ dysfunction, I want to help my patients thrive and live life to the fullest. Being a physical therapist means being a team with my patients, and I’m so excited to join that team with Future Family Center Physical Therapy and Wellness!
Jenna Smith, Physical Therapist Assistant
I’m a Physical Therapist Assistant with a passion for helping people regain strength and independence. Born and raised in Meridian, MS, I completed my PTA degree at Meridian Community College, graduating in 2021. My career began in a PRN role within a swing bed setting, where I learned the importance of making a meaningful, positive impact on the lives of those I work with.
Family is at the heart of my life. I’m a proud wife and mother to my two wonderful children—a daughter and a son—and I prioritize a healthy work-life balance so I can be there to create memories with them. In my free time, you’ll often find us spending time together or exploring new places. My favorite travel destinations are the beach and the mountains; I love the excitement of seeing somewhere new and taking in the beauty of different landscapes.
Through my work, I strive to bring compassion, encouragement, and a commitment to helping others. I’m grateful for the opportunity to make a difference each day.
Destinee Sistrunk, Office Coordinator
I grew up in Clarke County and graduated in 2010 from Enterprise High School. From there, I moved to Meridian which is where my family resides. I lived in Meridian for several years until I married my husband in 2018. Now, my husband and I live in Philadelphia and we have a tiny poultry farm, 4 furbabies, and finally, after 5 years of unexplained infertility, we are expecting our 1st baby in February 2025! I can’t help but to praise God for the journey I have been on so far and for the many blessings I have received.
Even though I now call Philadelphia home, Meridian will always have my heart. Which is one of the many reasons why I am so excited to have the opportunity to work with everyone at Future Family Center.
Kelsey Greer, Speech-Language Pathologist
I’m a native to Meridian. My husband and I have been married for almost 7 years. We are involved in our church where he is the student minister. My favorite place to be is the beach. I enjoy kayaking, anything outside, and hand stitching!
I’ve been a Speech-Language Pathologist for 8 years working primarily with peds in the school district. I’ve worked some in a skilled nursing facility as well. Some of the speech/language areas I have experience in and enjoy treating are: language impairment, articulation disorders, developmental delay, autism, stuttering, word finding issues, memory, attention, swallowing, etc.
What I love about my job is that SLPs can treat stroke victims, TBI patients, and an array of language/speech issues that pediatrics to elderly can have from natural aging, developmental issues, or effects from brain injuries. It’s truly the most rewarding field!
I’m so excited to join the team working PRN as an SLP to help all ages at Future Family Center Physical Therapy and Wellness! I will continue my work as Speech Therapist at Southeast Elementary School.
Katie Drohan, Massage Therapist
