About Jean
Jean Snyder is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 20 years of clinical experience in Michigan. She works with adults who are facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep problems, self-esteem struggles, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and the challenges of life changes. Jean also addresses intimacy-related issues and compassion fatigue.
She takes a practical, hands-on approach. She treats clients as the experts in their own lives and helps them set clear goals. Sessions may include short assignments between meetings, such as readings, thought exercises, or tasks that encourage reflection and action. Jean uses talk together with everyday activities to help people test new ways of coping.
Her work draws on several evidence-informed methods, including client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness exercises, motivational interviewing, and narrative approaches. Those methods are used to help people notice unhelpful patterns, try different behaviors, and rethink unhelpful stories they tell themselves.
Jean has a background that includes years working directly with people facing long-term health issues, caregiver stress, and substance concerns. She is familiar with supporting people through mood swings, grief, and the fallout from abuse. Her experience includes helping people untangle communication and commitment problems.
If someone is considering therapy after college, at the start of a career, or during a major life shift, Jean focuses on practical steps and small experiments that fit day-to-day life. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.
How Jean’s approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what someone says. It helps people clarify values and choose goals they actually want. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and uses experiments and practice to change them. Mindfulness therapy uses simple attention and awareness exercises to reduce reactivity and improve sleep and stress management.Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels useful. Together they adjust methods as they learn what helps most, mixing listening, practical assignments, and skill practice based on the person’s needs.
Session formats are not listed in the profile, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around school, work, or irregular hours. It also allows for short check-ins or longer sessions when needed, and for using written exercises, audio-guided mindfulness practices, or in-session behavioral tasks that translate to everyday life.
