Emily Stephens, M.A., LMHCA

Emily has been supporting the families of Thurston County since 2013, when she founded and began facilitating a free, weekly postpartum support group for local parents.  After earning her Masters in Counseling degree in 2020 she began work as a therapist, focusing her efforts on perinatal clients.  She believes that sharing experiences and reducing isolation are key ingredients for helping both individuals and communities to thrive.  Emily is committed to principles of anti-oppression, and seeks to affirm and celebrate all aspects of identity and experience.  She brings creativity, warmth, wisdom and heart to this work that she loves!
