About Charles
Charles Snider is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 12 years of experience. He is based in Florida and lists concerns including stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, parenting, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and codependency.
Charles uses straightforward conversation to get to the heart of what feels stuck. Sessions focus on practical changes in thinking and behavior, clearer communication, and identifying what keeps old patterns alive. He draws on Client-Centered work to listen without labels and on Cognitive Behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors.
When relationships are central, Charles brings in Emotionally-Focused ideas and the Gottman Method to map interactions and shift how partners connect. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone is unsure about change or dealing with substance use. Therapy tends to be interactive, with clear goals and step-by-step tasks between meetings.
He has experience with adoption-related concerns, caregiver stress, family of origin issues, and gender dysphoria among other focus areas. Practical problem solving is a regular part of sessions - for example, working on boundary-setting, coping strategies for anxiety, or communication skills for strained relationships.
Charles asks people to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to get started. The cost varies by location and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are not currently accepted.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Charles often combines Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in session. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so a person can figure out their own priorities. It helps when someone needs to sort feelings and make personal choices. CBT looks at thoughts, feelings, and actions in a clear way and teaches practical exercises to reduce anxiety, change unhelpful thinking, and try new behaviors.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Charles works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person's goals and daily life. He will discuss options, try techniques, and adapt the plan based on what works in practice.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also make it simpler to continue therapy during life changes or when regular in-person visits are difficult. Licensed professionals can use different formats depending on client needs, and Charles will review what formats he offers when you set up the first appointment.
