About Monique
Monique Trump Snelson is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, and relationship struggles. She emphasizes building self-compassion and clearer communication in everyday life. Her style is practical and direct, aimed at steady progress rather than quick fixes.
With eight years of clinical experience, Monique helps people facing depression, trauma, grief, and major life changes. She addresses concerns like parenting strain, career stress, sleep problems, and compassion fatigue. She also works with issues tied to attachment, adoption and foster care, and blended family dynamics.
Her sessions draw on approaches that include attachment-based methods, client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, and mindfulness practices. In plain terms, that means she pays attention to patterns in relationships, listens carefully to each person’s goals, and offers concrete skills for thinking and coping differently.
Monique aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental atmosphere where people can talk through hard moments and try small changes between sessions. She focuses on skills people can use right away, such as communication tools, emotion regulation practices, and strategies to manage worry and low mood.
Located in Michigan, Monique combines practical coaching with therapy to support lasting life changes. She uses her training as an LMFT to guide conversations toward clearer choices and healthier daily habits.

How therapy approaches shape online work
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice how they seek closeness or push others away and offers simpler ways to connect. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down thoughts, feelings, and actions into clear parts. It teaches practical exercises to reduce worry, change unhelpful thinking, and build routines that improve mood.Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to a person's goals and preferences. That process includes trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins during breaks or after work. It also lets people use phone-only check-ins when bandwidth is low or choose a shorter session for quick coaching and skills practice. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and attachment work to an online setting by sharing exercises, communication practices, and mindfulness tools that fit daily life.
