About Mary
Mary Snyder is an Ohio LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with 15 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, addictions, grief, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Mary also addresses career questions, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue.
Mary describes counseling as a collaborative process. She treats the person in the chair as the expert on their life and offers observations and practical techniques that can help. She aims to help people understand themselves more clearly so they can choose solutions that fit their situation.
Her background includes work in community counseling centers, services with foster families, and counseling on military installations in the U.S. and in Germany. That range of settings shaped a flexible approach that can be short term or longer term depending on the issue.
In sessions Mary mixes conversational, skill-based work with deeper reflective discussion. She draws on Client-Centered methods to focus on the individual's perspective, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map thinking and behavior patterns, and solution-focused strategies for concrete next steps.
People contact her when they feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward. She offers practical ideas, questions that invite new angles, and straightforward strategies so people can make changes they want in their everyday life.
How Mary uses evidence-based approaches in online work
Mary often combines Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Client-Centered work means the conversation focuses on the person's experience and priorities. CBT helps map thinking and behavior patterns and gives clear tools to try between sessions.She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach attention and noticing skills. Mindfulness techniques can help reduce reactivity to stress and support steadying attention during big life changes. Together these methods offer both short-term steps and deeper reflection depending on what feels right.
Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. Mary will discuss goals, try approaches, and adjust based on what helps most. She treats the client as the expert on their life and will offer observations and methods to test and refine together.
