Monique Trump Snelson, LMFT

Monique Trump Snelson is a licensed marriage and family therapist who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, and relationship challenges. She uses clear, practical talk to help clients build self-compassion and stronger communication. Sessions are aimed at making small, useful changes people can use day to day.

With eight years of experience, Monique draws on several therapy styles to meet different needs. She often blends Attachment-Based ideas with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered work to address how past relationships shape current patterns. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and mindfulness tools when helpful for emotion regulation and distress tolerance.

People come to her for a wide range of concerns. Those include grief, career strain, parenting stress, intimacy-related issues, sleep problems, anger, compassion fatigue, and coping with life changes. She also supports people dealing with attachment issues, adoption and foster care matters, body image, and trauma and abuse.

Monique practices in Michigan and holds an LMFT. She works in straightforward language and focuses on practical strategies like communication skills, behavior experiments, and mindfulness exercises. The goal is to help people feel steadier and more able to act on what matters to them.

Her approach treats therapy as a collaboration. She helps people identify small steps, practice new ways of relating, and track what is working. Many clients use what they learn in sessions to handle everyday stressors and to rebuild confidence over time.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people notice and change repeating cycles in close relationships. It can be useful for people struggling with abandonment concerns, attachment issues, or difficulty trusting others.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It is practical for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and many daily stresses because it produces clear steps to try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. That might mean mixing attachment work with CBT exercises or adding mindfulness and DBT skills when emotions feel intense.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people practice communication skills between work and home without needing major schedule changes. Licensed professionals help adapt techniques like behavioral experiments and mindfulness to an online setting so clients can use them in everyday situations.
