About Mary
Mary Snyder, LPCC, is a licensed professional clinical counselor in Ohio with 15 years of experience. She sees adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting pressures, grief, addiction concerns, and major life changes. She offers straightforward, practical help for people who want clearer thinking and better daily functioning.
Mary describes counseling as a collaborative process. She treats the person in the room as the expert on their life and brings observations and techniques that can help. Sessions focus on understanding patterns, testing small changes, and building skills that work in everyday life. She frames her role as a guide and coach rather than someone who hands down instructions.
Her background includes work in community counseling centers and with foster families. She has also provided counseling on U.S. military installations and in Germany. This variety of settings shaped a preference for both short-term solution work and longer-term exploration when problems are more complex.
In practice she uses a mix of approaches to suit the situation. Expect direct conversation about what’s getting in the way, practical steps to try between sessions, and reflection on deeper patterns where helpful. She helps people sort through options and choose what fits their life and values.
People come to Mary for help with communication problems, caregiver stress, blended family challenges, loss, substance concerns, and questions about identity and midlife. She also supports those dealing with career crossroads, guilt or shame, and feelings of isolation. If you want clear thinking and practical next steps, Mary can work with you to map them out.
How sessions work
How Mary’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. It helps people clarify their priorities and decide what changes to try. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and offers concrete experiments to shift those patterns. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and problem-solving in daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mary will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them over time based on what proves useful.
