About Mary
Mary Snyder is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) with 15 years of experience. She frames counseling as a collaborative process where the client is the expert on their life and the counselor offers observations and practical tools. Mary focuses on helping people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward.
She uses clear, direct conversation to help people understand themselves better. Sessions focus on finding solutions that fit each person’s situation and daily life.
Background and approach
She offers support, coaching, and new perspectives to help people see options they may have missed. Mary combines time-tested approaches like client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and mindfulness to address anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship challenges. She also draws on motivational interviewing and psychodynamic ideas when a deeper look at patterns is helpful.
Her background includes work in community counseling centers and roles supporting foster families and military personnel. That variety has shaped an adaptable style that ranges from short-term problem solving to longer-term work when issues are more complex. People come to Mary for help with parenting strain, family conflict, addictions, grief, intimacy and self-esteem concerns, career transitions, and coping with life changes.
She aims to provide practical steps, steady support, and a nonjudgmental space to try new approaches. If you feel unhappy or unsure what to try next, she helps you sort through options and build solutions that fit your life.
Therapeutic approaches and online options that fit your life
Client-centered work focuses on listening closely to each person's experience and shaping sessions around their goals. It helps people clarify values, make decisions, and build confidence by treating them as the expert on their own life.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and difficulty with coping in daily life.
Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and awareness skills to reduce reactivity and increase emotional balance. It can be helpful for managing stress, rumination, and overwhelming emotions.
Mary sees choosing an approach as a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan as progress is made. The aim is to find what actually helps in your day-to-day life rather than follow a single fixed method.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make counseling flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth, live chat can suit short check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to try different formats to see what works best.
