Dr. Marilyn S. Snow,
LPC-S, RPT-S, ACS
"It is my belief that when people can talk or play through their experiences, they are able to heal from past traumas and become more aware and accepting of themselves. They are capable of finding a sense of peace and contentment in their lives."
Dr. Snow’s primary focus is working with children in play therapy and with parents. She uses a client-centered approach and a framework of attachment and interpersonal neurobiology. At the beginning of her career, she primarily worked with adults who had experienced trauma. She specialized in dissociative disorders and PTSD. Her specialties continue in the area of trauma, PTSD, dissociation, attachment, parenting, and adverse childhood experiences.
Dr. Snow has a doctoral degree in counseling from Georgia State University and is an Associate Professor Emerita at The University of Mississippi, having taught in Counselor Education and Leadership from 2000 until June 2015. She became licensed as a professional counselor in 1996 in Georgia and in 1998 in Mississippi. She is a Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor, an Approved Clinical Supervisor, a National Certified Counselor, and a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor in Mississippi. She is also a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia.
