My Approach to Therapy

If you're exhausted, burnt out, and quietly wondering if things can actually get better I want you to know that they can. Healing is possible, even when it feels completely out of reach. You don't have to keep white-knuckling it alone. I'm Rebecca Snyder, LMSW, and I work with adults navigating life transitions, trauma, addiction and recovery, chronic pain, and relationship challenges. What I bring to our work is both breadth and depth I draw from evidence-based modalities including DBT, EMDR, IFS, and CBT, weaving together whichever combination of approaches fits your specific needs, your history, and where you want to go. No cookie-cutter treatment plans. Just thoughtful, tailored care. In our sessions, we'll build a real toolkit together. Using DBT's core modules mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness you'll develop practical skills to feel more grounded day to day. We'll also process what brought you here and work to uncover and strengthen what's already inside you, because you have more resilience than you may realize right now. This is a warm, nonjudgmental space where your full story is welcome. Whatever led you here, we'll explore it together and create a path forward that's genuinely yours.

My Practice & Services

I work with individual adults facing trauma and PTSD, addiction and recovery, chronic pain, life transitions, burnout, and relationship stress. My approach is integrative and strengths-based, combining DBT, EMDR, IFS, and CBT to meet you exactly where you are. I offer in-person sessions in NYC and virtual across New York, New Jersey, Florida, and South Carolina. Ready to take the first step?

Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With

In my work with both teens and adults, I bring a trauma-informed, relational approach to help clients explore the root causes of distress, not just the symptoms. My training and experience have equipped me to support people navigating intense emotions, complex relational dynamics, and the lasting effects of trauma. I am particularly skilled at working with: - Trauma and PTSD, including survivors of assault, abuse, and interpersonal violence - Anxiety, chronic worry, and the physical symptoms that often come with both - Relationship challenges and couples conflict using Gottman-informed strategies - Boundaries, people-pleasing, and patterns that show up in relationships - Emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness skills (DBT-based) - Childhood trauma and family-of-origin issues - Survivors of domestic violence, including teens and adults - Identity exploration and the process of building a stronger sense of self I strive to create a space where clients feel safe enough to do deep work and supported enough to take risks. Whether you're looking to heal from past experiences or make sense of what?s happening in the present, therapy can be a place to process, rebuild, and grow.
