Valerie Snyder, LCSW

Psychotherapist
PA
Hi! I’m Val. I have a passion for helping individuals and families reach their goals and work through life’s ongoing hurdles. I believe that every feeling is valid and that every person has the right to genuine and compassionate care. My goal is to create a safe and warm space for clients to share, process, and collaboratively meet their goals. My approach I utilize a strength-based, trauma-informed approach to treatment, integrating a variety of therapeutic modalities in order to best meet each client’s unique needs. I rely most on CBT, DBT, ACT, solution-focused brief therapy, person-centered therapy, motivational interviewing, and structural family therapy. My focus I utilize a collaborative approach to therapy, working with each client to identify exactly what they are looking for in therapy. My goal is to support and challenge when needed, working with my clients to meet their goals. My communication style I may be the therapist, but I'm also just a person. I bring an approachable tone to therapy. I want my clients to feel comfortable being honest, especially when they are struggling. I'm not here to judge, just offer unbiased support through life's challenges. My journey to mental healthcare I've worked in the mental health field for the past 10 years, first as a case manager, as a family based therapist, and as an outpatient therapist in a school setting. I have always been drawn to supporting those around me, whether that be just meeting them where they are at or reaching goals. My goals for you I work collaboratively with clients to identify both their short-term and long-term goals. I also understand that at times things come up that need to be addressed, and that's okay! My first session with you A first session is all about getting to know you and what brings you to therapy. I believe that the therapeutic connection is so important, and that is my goal when we first start working together. I want you to feel safe and heard with me.
