Are you unhappy, but don't know why? Do you have an idea what's wrong, but not sure what to do about it? Are you afraid that a counselor will tell you what you "should" do and you don't want to be told what to do? Let me set your mind at ease. Counseling is a collaborative effort where the client is the expert on the client, and the counselor is the expert on observations and techniques that have been shown to be effective in different situations. I like to say that a counselor is a guide to "inner space". I help you understand yourself better so you can create solutions that work for you, in your individual situation, and for your life. My job is to provide nonjudgmental insight, support, encouragement, and ideas. I provide you with another point of view to help you see yourself and your solutions more clearly. I can be a guide and a coach. My name is Mary Ann Snyder and I have been licensed as a counselor for 16 years. I have worked in community counseling centers, with foster families, and with the military, providing counseling services on military installations across the U.S. and in Germany. I am able to provide services for depression, anxiety, mood disorders, relationship issues, communications, anger issues, stage-of-life issues, goal-setting, career counseling and work-related issues, and adjustment issues. I have provided short-term solution focused counseling, and longer term, more in-depth counseling for situations that are more complicated. Many people have improved their happiness and satisfaction with life through counseling. All of us have struggles at times that we just can't seem to think our way out of. Let me help you figure things out.
