Cheryl Tredway

Cheryl has a direct, down-to-earth style and often uses a touch of humor when it fits the moment. Cheryl trained at Emporia State University, earning both a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Science in Counseling.

She has practiced since 2012 and brings ten years of clinical experience to her sessions. Her work has involved university students, people who have experienced trauma, active duty military and veterans, and clients managing anger issues.

In session, Cheryl meets people where they are and focuses on practical goals. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow the client’s lead and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.

She also uses EMDR for trauma-focused work when appropriate and incorporates techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy for emotion regulation skills. Her approach is collaborative and goal-oriented.

Cheryl helps people identify roadblocks, practice new skills, and track small changes over time. She encourages clients to bring their own voice and sense of humor into the process when it feels right.

For people juggling busy lives, Cheryl offers multiple online formats so therapy can fit a schedule. She guides clients through steps to set goals, try techniques between sessions, and adjust the plan as progress is made.
