Getting to know Cheri Eads
I believe you are valuable and have hope to overcome whatever reasons brought you here. I work with anger, anxiety, depression, anxiety-driven anger, major life adjustment issues, relational conflict, trauma, major depression, chronic pain, grief, perfectionism, anxiety affecting sleep, career changes, new parents (motherhood/fatherhood), parenting issues, and communication conflict/resolution. Together, we will work to bring you relief and reduce the challenges that keep you from living the life you desire. My therapy modalities include CBT, Solutions-Focused, and Rogerian Person-Centered approaches. While creating a safe space of courage and hope, we will set achievable goals to help you work through hurts or trauma that prevent you from moving forward.
If you wish, Christian counseling using Christ-centered spiritual and biblical principles is also available. My passion is helping you move ahead in life without relational conflicts, traumas, memories, and negative feelings holding you back. I look forward to meeting you so we can begin giving you the relief you need now!
There is hope beyond the suffering, relational conflict, trauma memories, sleepless nights, depression, recurring negative thoughts, and consuming worry you may be experiencing. It will be my honor to walk with you through your journey of hope and restoration.
I hold a Master’s degree in Marriage, Family, and Child Counseling from Pepperdine University and a Bachelor’s degree from California State Polytechnic University, Pomona.

It’s rare to come across a therapist as wonderfully helpful as Cheri. She truly knows her stuff! My fiancé and I are currently seeing her for couples therapy, and I instantly felt at ease during my first appointment, I felt validated and heard, and she provided us with valuable exercises; showing that she truly cares to see our relationship succeed. I’m already looking forward to our next session with her :)
