She has a particular interest in Anxiety, Panic Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, ADD/ADHD, Depression, Bipolar Disorder, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. At Fort Bend Psychiatry, Dr. Sniff provides diagnostic evaluations, medication management, and therapy. She makes a concerted effort to spend extra time with both children and adults, in order to listen, show compassion, provide the utmost quality of care, and educate patients and families. “Spending time with my patients and watching them improve are the greatest rewards of my job,” says Dr. Sniff. “There are instances when I realize that my interventions have likely changed the course of a patient’s life, and that is why I became a psychiatrist.”
Dr. Sniff is Board Certified in both General Psychiatry and Child & Adolescent Psychiatry. She began her education at Texas A&M University, where she graduated at the top of her class as Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biomedical Science. Dr. Sniff then obtained her Doctor of Medicine degree from the University of Texas Medical School at Houston.
