About Monique
Monique Trump Snelson is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) who focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress, and relationship challenges. She centers her work on building self-compassion and better communication so clients can move through hard moments more clearly.
She helps people facing life transitions, grief, trauma, workplace strain, and challenges with self-esteem. Monique draws on practical strategies to ease symptoms and to teach skills that fit into daily life. Sessions aim to make small, steady changes rather than dramatic fixes.
Her approach uses attachment ideas to understand how relationships shape feelings, and cognitive tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness and skills from dialectical behavior therapy are woven in when they help a person manage intense emotion and stay grounded.
Monique has eight years of clinical experience and works with adults in Michigan. She supports people who identify as men and others seeking focused help with intimacy, parenting concerns, career stress, ADHD, and family-of-origin problems.
In sessions she listens without judgment and helps clients set clear, achievable goals. She guides practical steps - communication practice, coping exercises, and ways to reframe worries - so clients can try new ways of responding between sessions.
To begin, she asks people to describe their immediate concerns and what they want to change. That makes it easier to pick the strategies that will be most useful right away.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current reactions. Online sessions use talking and guided reflection to notice patterns, improve communication, and practice new ways of relating. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In remote sessions a therapist helps identify unhelpful thinking, try new behaviors, and use simple homework to test changes between meetings.Choosing a therapy approach is a collaborative process. Monique will work with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. She checks in about what feels useful and adjusts strategies over time so the work stays relevant.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit work into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people use tools like mindfulness practices and worksheets between sessions to build skills in everyday life.
