Cheryl Tredway, LCPC

Cheryl Tredway is a Kansas Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with ten years of practice. She works with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger, addictions, relationship concerns, grief, and related issues. Sessions are offered in English and she has experience supporting people facing career strain, parenting stress, and life transitions.

Cheryl uses straightforward, practical conversations in sessions. She brings humor when it fits and encourages clients to do the same. She focuses on goals and helps people figure out concrete next steps when emotions feel overwhelming or choices are unclear.

Her work draws on a mix of methods. Cheryl uses client-centered techniques to listen and clarify what matters most. She also applies cognitive behavioral strategies to identify unhelpful patterns and DBT skills for managing intense emotions. EMDR is part of her trauma work when appropriate, and she uses Gottman-informed ideas in relationship work.

She has worked with a range of people, including university students, couples, trauma survivors, active duty military, veterans, and individuals dealing with anger issues. That background shapes how she approaches complex problems like addiction, codependency, and family-of-origin concerns.

Cheryl asks practical questions about current stressors and past experiences to find useful next steps. If someone wants to address anger that leads to snapping, resentment, or workplace frustration, she helps identify triggers and builds skills to respond differently. To begin she uses a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session based on the responses.
