About Romney
Romney Snyder-Croft is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Tennessee and Illinois with 20 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, eating concerns, depression, and help for people facing major life changes. Romney also offers coaching and support around wellness and chronic health issues.

Background and approach
Romney has a long track record helping those dealing with caregiving strain and chronic illness. She also supports people coping with adoption and foster care questions, attachment matters, and blended family dynamics. Body image and cancer-related concerns are part of her experience too.
She brings experience with aging and geriatric issues, autism and Asperger Syndrome, and co-morbidity that complicates care. Communication problems, control issues, codependency, and commitment struggles are also areas she addresses. Romney aims to help people build usable strategies that fit their routines.
Her approach includes working on coping skills, behavior changes, and clear coaching steps when useful. She helps people identify small, steady changes that can improve daily life. Romney supports clients through the early steps and through longer-term adjustments.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Many of Romney’s methods focus on clear, practical techniques that people can use right away. Cognitive-style approaches help identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns that feed anxiety and low mood. These approaches guide simple steps to test new thoughts and behaviors in everyday situations.Skills-based work, such as behavioral activation, helps people reconnect with routines and activities that boost mood and energy. That can be useful for depression, chronic illness fatigue, or when life changes make it hard to keep up usual habits. Coaching-style sessions focus on concrete goals, planning, and small consistent changes to support wellness and caregiving demands.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has worked before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust them as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for fuller conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text work well for brief updates, action planning, or when written reflection helps. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives and varied schedules.
