All Those Yesterdays is an EMDR and mental health therapy provider that includes: mental health assessments, diagnosis, individual therapy, and/or group therapy based on each client's needs. These services are for people who are suffering from most any life stressor, or issue (job stress, divorce, marital issue, sexual issues, anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, trauma, etc). The owner and sole clinician’s dream was to one day be able to give the gift that he has received himself over the years in the form of therapy. Stigma has caused so many people to not seek help when they are stressed, or struggling with life issues. Professionals in our community can be especially afraid to seek help due to a certain public image that people think they need to have. Everyone can benefit from therapy including; police officers, lawyers, doctors, therapists, nurses, teachers, and other helping professions. Many in the helping profession end up with what can be called "compassion fatigue" where they expend all their emotional energy on others that they have a hard time taking care of themselves. Ryan understands this fully and wants to be the trusted clinician that professionals can also turn to along with the rest of the population. This is part of why Ryan chooses to use self-disclosure openly to help reduce the stigma and help people understand that our mental health is just as important as our physical health. He feels society needs to get to the point where if they are struggling with something emotionally/mentally they should feel the same about calling for a therapy appointment as easily as a patient would call a medical doctor if they are running a fever.
Ryan is now able to provide mental health assessments, diagnosis, and outpatient mental health therapy. Appointments can be made by calling 712-363-8066 (work cell).

Learn More about Ryan Jensen
Why did he become a mental health therapist, because he is also a person with co-occurring disorders (meaning he has had his own addictions and has had traumatic events in his life that affect his mental health).
“What I noticed when I stopped abusing methamphetamine and cocaine is that my mind and emotions were still not where they needed to be. I was improved, but had not dealt with my attachment disorder, the death of my father, when I was 16, the death of my mother when I was 25, losing all my grandparents by the time I was 20. I was also diagnosed with type 1 diabetes after being an a NCAA baseball pitcher, who also tore my rotator cuff and lost any chance of being drafted. All of these events occurred for me by the time I was 25 years old. This is what’s considered complex trauma. I had hopes and dreams of pitching in the majors, what I got was a major addiction to methamphetamine and cocaine. These addictions were also accompanied by a whole bunch of complex trauma that was affecting my life. I am now able to be fully functioning in life and am just trying to help people, as I have been helped, to improve their overall quality of life in any way that I can. I really felt a connection with my past sponsors and counselors when they shared this type of information with me about themselves, it helpied lower my defenses and gave me a sense of hope that if they got better, than so could I."
Ryan also felt the need to help the less fortunate in Menomonie, WI in 2010, so he and two other individuals decided to start a non-profit organization which has two transitional living homes which are still operating in full force today. He felt that a lot of the people coming out of jails, prisons and treatment centers had nowhere healthy to go after being at these places, which led a lot of them back to jail or relapsing soon after residential treatment. They formed a sober living environment in these homes where men and women could live until they became independent again. Ryan and his partners not only required abstinence from the tenants to live there, but they also had to get a job, attend 12 step meetings, or be involved with therapy. Of course, Ryan and his partners helped them find ways of getting jobs, forming resumes, getting state aid and so on. The name of the transitional living company is Soft Landing Transition Services.
