Dr. Snyder is a board certified practicing licensed clinical psychologist in both California and Nevada for over 20 years. Dr. Snyder was trained in clinical psychology where she received her Masters and Doctorate with an emphasis in Health Psychology from The California School of Professional Psychology Los Angeles in 2000. In 2015 Dr. Snyder created and launched Girl Nation, her innovative Girl empowerment program where girls are encouraged to connect, inspire, and support each other. As a clinical psychologist in private practice, Dr Snyder found herself frustrated by the limitations of traditional psychotherapy.

Historically, mental health has been focused on illness, diagnosis, and symptoms. Dr. Snyder moves away from that model and instead focus on personal strengths, solutions, and the whole human.

With a 20 year background in yoga, mindfulness meditation, and a Doctorate degree in Heath Psychology Dr. Snyder began to work with her patients in a more holistic approach. Dr. Snyder utilizes high quality mental health care rooted in science, and also places a strong emphasis on incorporating lifestyle changes as needed to enhance physical & mental outcomes. Dr. Snyder has a deep understanding of how important the whole body and mind connection is, therefore her approach with her patients isn’t solely about mental health. She wants to understand the whole person and the daily behaviors. Dr Snyder provides high-quality mental health care rooted in science, compassion, heart/soul.

Dr. Snyders patients describe her as warm, insightful and caring.

    Thank you Dr Snyder for all you are doing. You have given both my teenage kids life skills that are making them into wonderful people. My son is really enjoying working with you. We see some big changes in him already. He spends more time with family and friends and less time hiding in his room playing video games. He is communicating more and just seems overall happier. We have had a pretty tough few years with Covid so I am grateful to have my son back.

    You have been so much more than just therapist over the years. Thank you for taking care of me and for re-parenting me and teaching me how to set boundaries and have the life skills that I needed in order to survive. You taught me that a happy life was possible. You held the space for this when I didn’t think it was possible.

    Dr Snyder has taught me to look inward and rely on myself and not become dependent upon her for answers, as the answers were always inside of me. However, she’s been a great guide and coach along the way helping me to finally find and accept my authentic self.
