Stephanie Trudeau serves as Affiliate Assistant Professor for the School of Psychology & Marriage and Family Therapy program at Fuller Theological Seminary. Guided by a biopsychosocial/spiritual (BPSS) model and systems theories, her work aims to inform the intersection of families and health.

She resides in Minneapolis, MN with her husband and 3 children.
