About Laurie
Laurie Snyder is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Pennsylvania and New Jersey with 40 years of professional experience. She works with people facing relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, grief, and major life changes. She also offers coaching around life direction and goal setting.
Laurie uses a mix of evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside mind-body practices. She names cognitive psychodynamic therapy, tapping/EFT, meditation, and centering as tools she uses to help regulate strong emotions and process past hurts. In sessions she guides clients in noticing patterns that repeat in relationships and in daily life.
A common focus is communication. Laurie helps people identify emotional triggers and practice speaking with personal ownership. She works on restructuring old relational patterns so interactions feel clearer and less reactive. This often includes practical communication steps to try between sessions.
She also supports people working through grief, chronic illness or caregiver stress, and issues around body image, guilt, shame, and isolation. Laurie helps clients set intentions, address limiting beliefs, and build habits that support steady change.
Her approach blends psychological insight with simple self-regulation practices such as focused breathing and tapping. Laurie frames therapy as collaborative work where the person’s own aims guide the pace and focus of sessions.
BHow sessions work
How therapeutic methods translate to online work
Laurie uses a blend of cognitive psychodynamic techniques and mind-body practices. Cognitive psychodynamic work looks at recurring thoughts and relationship patterns and connects them to present feelings. This helps with relationship conflict, attachment concerns, and repetitive emotional reactions. Mind-body practices such as tapping/EFT and meditation focus on calming intense feelings and building practical emotion regulation skills useful for panic, grief, and stress.Choosing the best mix of approaches is collaborative. The therapist and client review goals, current challenges, and personal preferences, then try methods that fit. Sessions include experiments in communication, brief regulation exercises, and rethinking limiting beliefs so clients can test changes between meetings.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and letting people use audio-only or video depending on comfort and bandwidth. These practical features help people keep consistent appointments and apply new skills in day-to-day situations.
