Meet the Counselor

My name is Lauren Snyder, and I am excited to be the guidance counselor at Brainerd Baptist School. I graduated from Bryan College and received my Master’s degree from Richmont University in clinical mental health counseling. I worked for several years at Erlanger Behavioral Health Hospital and spent time leading group therapy at Covenant College.
As the school counselor, I am here to work alongside teachers and parents to help students develop socially and emotionally. Students are welcome to discuss various topics such as anxiety, bullying, managing feelings, making good choices, friendships, and conflict resolution.
