About Jean
Jean Snyder is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 20 years of experience. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, mood swings, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep trouble, low self-esteem, ADHD, and codependency-related concerns.
She approaches therapy as a collaborative process. Jean treats the person as the expert on their life and works alongside them to set goals. Sessions often include practical tasks to try between meetings, such as reading, short exercises, or activities that prompt reflection on thoughts and feelings.
Her work blends talk therapy with purposeful activity. That means conversations are paired with real-world steps aimed at changing patterns that cause distress. She uses tools drawn from several approaches to help people notice unhelpful thinking, try small behavior changes, and reflect on personal stories that shape current choices.
Clients can expect clear, direct suggestions and homework that relate to their goals. Tasks vary depending on whether the focus is mood, relationships, substance concerns, caregiving stress, or coping with health problems. Jean emphasizes practical skills that can be used between sessions to manage symptoms and make decisions.
She began her career in both counseling and occupational therapy and keeps that practical perspective in clinical work. People who come for help often want hands-on ideas to change daily routines, improve communication, set limits, or rebuild confidence after loss or trauma.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building mutual understanding. It helps when someone wants to talk through values, decisions, or relationship patterns and needs a therapist who treats them as the expert in their life.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing changes in behavior. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleeping problems, and many daily patterns that keep people stuck.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches ways to notice thoughts and bodily reactions without getting pulled into them. It can help with stress, mood swings, and staying present during difficult moments.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and the problems they want to address. That decision happens together, and approaches can be adjusted over time.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm which online options are available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Many people find that doing therapy from a familiar place helps them practice real-life skills between meetings and follow through on assigned exercises.
