Major life changes, whether expected or sudden, can bring complex emotions that feel difficult to name or navigate. Loss, transition, and change often affect our sense of stability, identity, and direction, even when everything looks “fine” on the outside. At Snead Psychological Services, Dr. Alex Snead provides a supportive, nonjudgmental space to help you process these emotions, understand their impact, and move forward with greater clarity and resilience.

Therapy focuses on honoring your experience while helping you adapt to what comes next.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder is often misunderstood as a preference for order or neatness. In reality, OCD is driven by overwhelming anxiety and a powerful need for relief. Compulsions aren’t habits; they’re attempts to manage distress when uncertainty feels unbearable.

At Dr. Snead Psychological Services, we focus on evidence-based treatment that addresses the underlying anxiety patterns that keep OCD cycles going. With the right approach, it’s possible to reduce symptoms, regain time and mental space, and move forward with greater confidence.

Understanding OCD is the first step toward effective support.

Anxiety affects nearly 1 in 3 adults over a lifetime, and for many people, anxiety doesn’t just stay internal.

It can show up through physical patterns like tics, repetitive movements, or vocal behaviors that feel hard to control. At Dr. Snead Psychological Services, we work with children, adolescents, and adults experiencing tic disorders, including those influenced or worsened by anxiety and stress.
If anxiety or tics are impacting daily life, support is available and effective.

Children and teens experience stress, anxiety, and emotional challenges just like adults; they simply express them differently. When feelings become overwhelming, early support can make a meaningful difference in how they grow, cope, and thrive.

Skin-picking disorder affects millions of women in the U.S., yet it’s often misunderstood or dismissed as a “bad habit.” In reality, it’s a recognized mental health condition driven by urges, stress, and learned behavioral patterns, not a lack of willpower.

At Snead Psychological Services, Dr. Alex Snead offers evidence-based therapy to help individuals understand their triggers, reduce urges, and build healthier responses with compassion and practical tools. Support is focused on progress, not judgment.

Help is available, and change is possible.
