EMDR Therapists in Iowa

I'm Tena, a licensed counselor in Arizona, New Mexico, and Pennsylvania. I started Sunridge Counseling in 2022 and have been providing therapy since 2016. I received my master's degree in Professional Counseling in 2016 and went on to work with teens, adults, and families struggling with trauma, anxiety, neurodiversity, and depression. I am EMDR trained and certified in TF-CBT. When I'm not with clients, I enjoy spending time with my dogs, reading, going to the gym, and hiking. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, or need help coping with a traumatic event, you have come to the right place. What if you could not only manage your anxiety, but experience much less of it? Imagine if you could understand yourself better, be more comfortable in your relationships, and create a meaningful life beyond trauma. I'm here to accept you as you are, while we develop and work towards your goals. I tailor all treatments to your needs and offer EMDR, CBT, TF-CBT and DBT. I know change is hard, but I'm here to walk with you you every step of the way. Contact me to set up a free consultation.

Many of my clients come to me feeling alone, unfulfilled, and wanting something different out of their relationships. They are often feeling burnt out, struggling with impulsivity & procrastination, feeling “not good enough,” holding themselves to unrealistic standards, feeling weighed down by what’s happening in the world, repeating the same unhealthy relationship patterns again and again, and confused about who they are after spending so much time trying to be something else for other people.
