About Brittany

Brittany Snyder is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who uses an individualized, trauma-informed approach to help families and parents facing stress and relationship challenges. She centers practical skills and clear guidance in sessions while staying warm and down-to-earth. Parents and caregivers find direct tools for coping with anxiety, transitions, and everyday parenting struggles.

Brittany brings 13 years of clinical experience in Indiana to her work. She earned a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling and has spent more than a decade working with families, couples, and individuals across the lifespan.

Background and approach

Her background includes college counseling, so she is familiar with issues that affect young adults and their families. She has significant experience with trauma, including abuse and domestic violence, and often views problems through a trauma-informed lens. In session she pairs insight-building with practical strategies.

That means she helps people notice patterns, thoughts, and feelings, then practices new ways of responding. She uses approaches such as attachment-based work, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally focused strategies, EMDR for trauma processing, and mindfulness skills when appropriate. Brittany emphasizes collaboration.

She listens first, then offers direction and tools tailored to each family’s goals. Parents can expect straightforward guidance on communication, boundaries, caregiver stress, and supporting children through life changes. Her style is supportive and goal-oriented.

She works with issues like anxiety, depression, grief, parenting, relationship problems, ADHD, and workplace stress. Sessions are offered in English and held in Indiana, reflecting her local practice and experience.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online family care

Attachment-Based Therapy helps people understand how early bonds shape current relationships. Online sessions can use these ideas to improve parent-child connection and couple communication by identifying patterns and practicing new interactions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In remote sessions this becomes hands-on work - tracking thoughts, trying new responses, and building coping skills for anxiety, depression, or parenting stress.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) targets emotional patterns in relationships and helps couples and families access and share underlying needs. In virtual work, this often looks like guided conversations and role practice to strengthen attachment and reduce conflict.

Brittany treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will discuss goals, listen to what feels most important, and tailor methods to each family’s needs and preferences. Clients and the therapist decide together which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for busy caregivers. Sessions can fit around school, work, and appointments, and messaging options allow brief check-ins between longer sessions. This mix of formats helps parents access support in ways that match their schedules and comfort levels.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
