University of Wyoming Athletics

Tedder Easton, LPC, MS, is the Assistant Director of Student-Athlete Well-Being at the University of Wyoming for Athletics. Tedder completed his Bachelor of Arts in Communications in 2013, and a Masters in Mental Health Counseling in 2021, both from the University of Wyoming. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, Tedder assists in overseeing the wellness, mental health, and mental performance needs of student-athletes. In this role, he provides individual counseling and performance enhancement, team mental performance support, crisis support, consultation, and prevention programming. Tedder also provides clinical supervision for counselors in training through the University of Wyoming’s graduate programs. Having been a former University of Wyoming football player, from 2009 to 2013, he is glad to be back in Athletics!

Tedder’s goal for counseling with student-athletes and high performers is to empower individuals to take ownership of their lives and well-being. He uses a strengths-based and person-centered theoretical framework and integrates a variety of therapeutic modalities and blended approaches to work collaboratively to achieve both athlete and team goals, on and off the field of play.

Prior to joining Wyoming Athletics, Tedder provided mental health services to students at The Counseling Center at the University of Wyoming as the Multicultural Specialist. In this role, Tedder specialized his clinical expertise to meet the needs of multicultural students and identities. 
 

When not providing clinical and performance support, you can find Tedder watching movies, as he is an avid movie-goer, or refining his art of BBQ, particularly smoking food! Having grown up in Columbia, Missouri, Tedder played football, baseball, and basketball, and has since enjoyed all things sports!
