About Monique

Monique Trump Snelson is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. She centers her work on building self-compassion and clearer communication so people can feel more steady in their day-to-day lives.

She uses practical, evidence-informed methods to address common problems like relationship strain, workplace stress, parenting challenges, and sleep disruption. Sessions emphasize simple tools clients can use between meetings, such as emotion regulation skills and behavior changes. Monique favors an approachable style that keeps language plain and goals concrete.

Her practice also covers trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related concerns, and ADHD-related struggles. Additional focuses include abandonment, attachment issues, blended family concerns, body image, codependency, and navigating divorce or separation. She helps people look at patterns that come from family of origin and current relationships.

Monique blends Attachment-Based, Client-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral, Dialectical Behavior, and Mindfulness approaches. That mix allows her to match strategies to individual needs rather than use a single method for everyone. She aims to help people notice what works in their lives and build on it.

She brings eight years of clinical experience in mental health settings and community care. Monique practices in Michigan and offers services in English. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to her availability.

How her approaches shape online care

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand where strong emotions and trust issues come from and how to build steadier connections. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers clear exercises to change unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors that ease anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Monique will listen to your goals, try methods that fit your situation, and adjust based on what helps. Clients and therapist decide collaboratively which techniques to use and how quickly to change course.

Confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are available. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow quick check-ins on difficult days. Some approaches lend themselves to short skill-focused meetings while others work well with longer reflective sessions; Monique will help match session length and pace to everyday life and your priorities.
