Dr. John A. Snyder Dr. Snyder received his doctorate in 1967 from the University of Pennsylvania and was subsequently appointed an Instructor in Psychiatry in the School of Medicine to train psychiatric interns and residents in relational psychotherapy, using an approach developed under grants from the National Institute of Mental Health. For the last forty years, he has devoted his professional life to the independent practice of clinical psychology, helping hundreds of people to overcome depression and the pain of estrangement in relationships, and to live more exciting and rewarding lives. In the process, he has shaped the practice of many psychiatrists, psychologists, and family… therapists as well. His innovative approach to relational dynamics is outlined in his 2005 book Flying Lessons: the Psychology of Intimacy and Anxiety. A licensed pilot and an avid sailor, Dr Snyder lives in the Chesapeake Bay town of St. Michaels with his life partner, Carolyn Mills. He has a pair of dancing shoes.
