Julie Kennedy, MA, LMHC

Julie Kennedy, MA, LMHC is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Gentle Sleep Coach, trained and certified by Kim West, LCSW-C (a.k.a, "The Sleep Lady®").

Julie is one of the First 50 graduates of the 2011 Gentle Sleep Coaching Program, and her prior education includes a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Washington State University and Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology from Gonzaga University.

After a successful and rewarding career as a school counselor in Spokane, she "retired" from her job to start a family. After personally sleep training her first son, successfully sleep shaping her twins, and helping many friends and family with their children, she realized how helpful a sleep consultant can be. Julie decided to become a Gentle Sleep Coach to help parents regain control over their children's sleep habits and start enjoying more healthy sleep themselves.

With over ten years as a successful Sleep Coach, Julie has positively impacted countless families and looks forward to coaching parents and children to help improve their lives through better sleep.
