About Mary

Mary Snyder brings a practical, collaborative approach grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and complementary methods to help clients untangle persistent problems and find workable solutions. She views counseling as a partnership where the client’s knowledge of their life meets the therapist’s tools for observation and change.

Background and approach

In sessions she offers compassionate guidance, coaching, and gentle challenges designed to increase self-understanding and build concrete skills to manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns, relationship strains, and life transitions.

With 15 years of clinical experience as an LPCC in Ohio, Mary has supported people facing depression, addictions, grief, parenting and family struggles, communication difficulties, and career or midlife crossroads. She uses a range of approaches including client-centered listening, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and psychodynamic perspectives when they fit the client’s goals.

Her practice emphasizes practical strategies and tailored insight so each person can develop solutions that match their circumstances and values.

Practical approaches for change in online sessions

Mary integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to offer a mix of skill-building and empathic listening. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress, while client-centered work emphasizes understanding each person’s perspective and building a therapeutic alliance that supports exploration and growth.

She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people develop present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity to difficult emotions, which can be useful for managing stress, grief, cravings, and compassion fatigue. Together these approaches allow for both practical strategies and reflective exploration so goals and interventions can be adjusted collaboratively over time.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility for people balancing work, family, or other responsibilities. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to try different modalities while determining which approach and session style best support each person’s progress.
