Corey Williams

Owner & Physical Therapist


I am a water-girl from Whidbey Island, Washington. I grew up right on the Puget Sound, exploring the woods, climbing trees and swimming through the endless summer days. The outdoors are my native habitat. I believe in the restorative benefits of fresh air and moving our bodies out-of-doors.

I studied Spanish at the University of Washington and in Oaxaca, Mexico and completed a Masters degree in Physical Therapy at the Mayo School of Health Related Sciences in Minnesota. I was drawn to physical therapy 20 years ago by my love for people and devotion to wellness. I have worked with a range of ages, diagnoses and in various treatment settings including outpatient orthopedics, pediatrics, geriatrics and inpatient and acute care. I specialize in the treatment of the pelvis and pelvic floor conditions. Please see my services for additional information regarding these services.

I love change, I love what is new and growing, I love connecting with people, with knowing someone’s soul. I am married to my partner-in-adventure Sean and have two fun-and-fiery children. We left the big city years ago and put down our roots in Roslyn, Washington; we love small town life! Weekends you will find me hiking and skiing, clucking at my chickens, dancing with my children, digging in our garden and making homemade sauerkraut or green bean pickles. I (mostly) embrace the mess, chaos and boundless curiosity of childhood. I am a skilled practitioner, devoted friend, mountain mama, decent salsa-dancer, and passionate Spanish-speaker with chronic wanderlust.



Erin Krekling, PT, DPT

Physical Therapist


I grew up in northeast Indiana, graduated from Eastern University in Pennsylvania (2000) with a B.A. in Economics and Finance. After graduation I moved to the PNW to build houses with Habitat for Humanity and serve as an AmeriCorps member. I fell in love with WA state where I also met my husband and became an outdoor enthusiast. My husband and I have been adventure partners since 2001, including thru hiking the Pacific Crest Trail in 2003, and we have had the opportunity to share our love for the outdoors with our children (now 10 and 12 years old). We enjoy hiking, backpacking, mountain biking, bike packing, and paddle boarding as a family.

Throughout my life I have always had a passion for being physically active. Since I can remember I played backyard games and organized sports. In high school I ran track and played soccer and then went on to play college soccer and lacrosse. In 2013 I began my journey into the profession of physical therapy as a physical therapist assistant (PTA), and in 2021 I graduated from the University of Puget Sound with my clinical doctorate in Physical Therapy (DPT).

I am a physical activity and wellness forward PT who is passionate about understanding how each patient “moves” throughout their daily lives. I will focus on the whole person by integrating the dynamic nature of our own bodies and the world around us and keeping perspective on how the social determinants of health influence a patient’s experience and condition in very individual ways. My goal is to develop partnerships and guide each patient in understanding their special role in improving their own health.




Britt Hunt, PTA, PPCE

Physical Therapist Assistant


I grew up in Seattle, WA. In true PNW fashion, I love and embrace the rain and grey. Fall is by far my favorite season. I can’t get enough of the changing colors, the chill in the air, and the cozy, bundled-up feeling. With that said, moving to this part of Washington has been incredible. Who doesn’t love all the sunshine and snowfall?

I’m a mother of two incredible little boys (2 and 4). I’m married to my favorite person. My husband and I moved to the area because of our shared love of the mountains, small community, and a slower pace. We’ve been so grateful for this wonderful place, the friends we’ve met, and the spectacular views. Our children are thriving here, and we couldn’t be happier.

I received my BA in communication from the University of Colorado at Boulder. I ended up falling in love with skiing and small-town life, so I stayed in the Colorado mountains for another five years. But I missed the PNW and my family. I returned to Seattle to pursue more career opportunities. Turns out I’m not a desk person and not that excited about marketing. I started teaching Pure Barre while going back to school to figure out my passion. I was immediately obsessed with anatomy and physiology. I appreciated the idea of incorporating my love for fitness with healing bodies. This newfound interest led me to physical therapy. I went on to earn my Physical Therapist Assistant from Green River College. I met great friends, and I reinforced my passion for the human body. So, I changed my career at 34.

Before moving to Cle Elum, I was mostly working with the outpatient orthopedic population. I had an emphasis in return to sport. After having my second son, I wanted to understand my own postpartum pathologies. I decided to get my certification in Postpartum Corrective Exercise while on maternity leave. It was then I was able to heal my own abdominal separation, understand proper posture as a means to improved health and energy, while also finding new self-awareness. Shortly after finishing my certification, I was introduced to Corey Williams. I was blown away by her techniques, knowledge and patient consideration. I value her holistic approach to posture, mindfulness and pelvic floor health. Finding this specialty has reignited my love of physical therapy and physical health. I’ve really enjoyed making genuine connections with our patients, supporting their journeys, and improving their everyday lives.

You can also find me around town teaching “Britt Barre”, a hybrid of Barre techniques with functional strengthening. It’s been so much fun teaching group classes again. I’m excited to raise my children in this community, build more friendships, find more hiking trails, and grow old with my husband.



Davida

Office Manager


I grew up in Edmonds, Washington and studied nutrition and fashion design at Shoreline Community college before being hired full time at Costco Wholesale. I spent 15 years working at Costco in the Quality Assurance division and during my time there I also met my partner in life. We have 2 children together, 15 and 12 years old. During my time at Costco, I refined my skills for organizing, customer service and a love of helping people. We moved to Cle Elum over 5 years ago to enjoy nature and the beauty this state has to offer and adopt the small-town life.

I have been actively involved with our local schools, providing art and cooking programs for the kids as well as being an active member of the Parent Action Council. During the weekends you will find me doing art, baking, walking my dogs or volunteering somewhere. I look forward to assisting you with scheduling appointments and am happy to help with any questions or concerns you may have.
