Jean Snyder, LPC

Jean Snyder, LPC, brings 20 years of experience working with people in counseling and related therapeutic settings. As an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor - she holds a state credential to provide professional counseling and emphasizes a practical, collaborative approach to care. Her background includes attention to meaningful daily activity alongside emotional work, reflecting a belief that talking and purposeful action together support healing.

She creates a team-oriented atmosphere in which the client is treated as the expert in their own life. Sessions focus on clear goals and concrete steps, and she frequently assigns short tasks between meetings to reinforce progress. These assignments can include brief readings, reflective exercises to explore thought patterns, or activities designed to highlight feelings and behaviors relevant to the client’s goals.

Jean works with a wide range of concerns, including depression and anxiety, stress management, suicidal thoughts, substance abuse issues, career and relationship difficulties, chronic health challenges, caregiver burnout, effects of past abuse, mood instability, low self-esteem, and grief. Her clinical toolkit draws from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral strategies, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, narrative approaches, psychodynamic ideas, solution-focused methods, and trauma-focused techniques to tailor support to each person’s needs.

She recognizes how hard it can be to reach out for help and affirms the courage involved in that first step. Jean welcomes the opportunity to accompany people through change and to help them build the skills and choices that move their lives forward.
