About Cheryl
Cheryl Tredway is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (KS LCPC) with ten years of practice. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger, and relationship concerns. Cheryl also helps with addictions, grief, intimacy issues, parenting strain, ADHD, and career or life transitions.
She trained at Emporia State University in Kansas, earning both a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Science in Counseling. Cheryl uses a mix of practical approaches in sessions, including client-centered techniques, cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical behavior skills, EMDR for trauma, and the Gottman Method for relationship work. She brings straightforward communication and occasional humor when it suits the conversation.
Cheryl focuses on goal-oriented work. She and the person she sees identify obstacles and build steps to address them. Sessions may include skill practice, problem-solving, and examining patterns that keep issues repeating. She has experience supporting university students, couples, trauma survivors, active duty military, veterans, and people with anger issues.
When someone is feeling overwhelmed by life or struggling to manage strong emotions, Cheryl helps them sort priorities and try concrete strategies. She uses talk, skills training, and trauma-focused methods when appropriate. The aim is to develop clearer responses to stress and to reduce the moments that escalate into anger or harmful coping.

How Cheryl’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and helping people set their own goals. In practice this means sessions often begin with the person describing what they want to change and the therapist reflecting and clarifying to shape useful steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses short exercises and homework to test new ways of responding to stress and anger. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches specific skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can reduce reactive outbursts and improve communication.Finding the right approach is something Cheryl plans to do together with the person she sees. She will discuss which methods fit the problem, the person’s goals, and what feels doable. That collaborative process may combine talk, skill practice, and trauma-focused work when needed.
The biography does not specify which online formats Cheryl currently uses, so confirm session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It can also let people practice new skills between sessions and review strategies learned in therapy while at home. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, DBT, and Client-Centered methods effectively over remote sessions, and Cheryl will help decide what approach and format suit the person’s needs.
