Welcome to Greg Snider, LPC, LLC

My practice is called Greg Snider, LPC, LLC.  Since June 2009 I have been in solo private practice in Wetumpka, Alabama, serving clients in the River Region and surrounding area.  I offer effective, individualized, outpatient mental health care. I treat a number of mental health disorders, and provide a confidential, supportive, neutral ground for adults, children, couples, and families. I also work with clients referred for Short-Term Solution-Focused Employee Assistance Program (EAP) counseling provided free of charge  through the client's employer.

I focus on helping individuals heal, energize, and become aware of and tap into their inner strengths. I provide a confidential safe space, listening to your concerns, and customizing a treatment plan. 

Some people come to counseling looking for a "quick fix" for their problems, and others come seeking advice.  I don't offer a "quick fix" or a "miracle cure". I'll help you find answers you can live with. I will intentionally avoid giving you advice, while helping you deal with your problems and issues.

I promise to be there for you every step of your journey. My goal is to help you grow from your struggles, heal from your pain, and move forward to where you want to be in your life. 

I adhere to a counseling code of ethics that protects the confidentiality of what you say  in  counseling. (See FAQs page for details.) The code prohibits discrimination and requires an understanding of, and respect for, cultural diversity. Code of ethics mandates that I remain focused on the your needs, your safety, and your well being.

During your first counseling session we'll talk about information you'll have  provided on your intake form. I welcome your asking any questions that come to mind. If we mutually decide to work together to tackle your problems/issues, we will begin developing the treatment goals and treatment plan. We'll also decide on the number of counseling sessions we plan on meeting together. As we approach our target end date, we'll evaluate the results of our work together, and decide to either continue with additional counseling sessions, end counseling sessions and/or make a referral to an outside resource for further assistance. Through counseling and treatment, I will help you recover motivation, perspective, and joy that you once had in your life. 

Many individuals can experience symptoms associated with painful and traumatic circumstances. Anxiety, fear, depression, and feeling hopeless and overwhelmed are a few of the emotions that can linger post traumatic events. I can help you overcome these symptoms and guide you through the process of healing. 

Relationship counseling can be beneficial to couples and families who are looking to strengthen their emotional connections, in all stages of their relationships. It is a supportive confidential place for clients to discuss issues and solutions to  strengthen your relationship.  Many times I act as a mediator to help couples work through issues. Children's lives are improved when their parents get along well.
