Faye Snyder, PsyD, is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who specializes in trauma therapy and attachment theory. She founded The Institute for Professional Parenting (TIPP) in 1988. Called by some professionals “The Child Whisperer,” she specializes in teaching parents how to perceive and even heal their children, especially from early traumatic experiences and parenting errors they’ve made. She also teaches new parents how to raise a “miracle child” from scratch. Author of The Miracle Child Parenting Series, she has a miracle child of her own.

Dr. Snyder attended California Graduate Institute for her Master’s Degree, originally in order to understand how therapists were trained. Later, she formulated The Causal Theory as a parenting and diagnostic theory, which seeks to identify the experiences behind all behaviors, especially criminal behavior. When she decided she wanted to further her theory, she returned to school. She received her doctorate from Ryokan College of Psychology. Dr. Snyder worked for one year at the Department of Children and Family Services in order to understand the inner workings of the organization.

The Causal Theory identifies the origins of personality disorders in early childhood events, as well as identifies the source of acting-out behaviors which result from unresolved trauma. Dr. Snyder has been assessing parenting and children’s behaviors for nearly two decades and has fine-tuned the ability to assess a patient’s resilience and drive to heal, as well

Dr. Snyder is a consummate therapist with a thriving practice, who has decided to move into the field of forensic psychology, for which she is already highly qualified. Having assessed and coached parenting for two decades and spent some time with DCFS, she now seeks to specialize in child custody issues and evaluations. Further, she is prepared to perform fast track evaluations.

Moreover, Dr. Snyder has also been studying the childhoods of serious criminals for nearly twenty years, and feels called to forensic psychology. She also intends to specialize in profiling and risk assessment. Temporarily, Dr. Snyder is willing to work at reduced rates to accelerate this endeavor.

Dr. Snyder is readily available by appointment at 661-257-1020.
