Monique Trump Snelson

Monique Trump Snelson is a licensed marriage and family therapist who focuses on helping people cope with life changes and everyday stress. She offers steady support for anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and self-esteem struggles. Her style is warm and straightforward, aimed at helping people feel heard and make practical shifts that fit their daily life.

She uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current connections. That perspective helps when patterns around intimacy, abandonment, or blended family issues cause pain. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to ease anxiety or low mood.

Client-Centered Therapy guides her interactions so the person sets the pace and goals. Mindfulness Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques are available to teach emotion regulation, grounding, and present-moment skills. These tools are used as needed to manage things like sleeping problems, anger, or compassion fatigue.

Monique has eight years of experience and works with concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, career stress, ADHD, and body image. She treats each case as unique and adapts methods to the person in front of her. She practices in Michigan and offers services in English.

People who choose her can expect a collaborative process that balances empathy with concrete steps. She encourages self-compassion while helping clients build new coping habits and improve communication in relationships.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current connections and helps people understand intimacy or abandonment issues in a practical way. It can be useful for those noticing repeated relationship patterns or attachment wounds.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches concrete exercises to challenge unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, or sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will work with the client to choose and adjust methods based on goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. That means trying techniques together and shifting course when something isn’t working.

Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking so you know how sessions will be delivered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a work break, or offer options when low bandwidth or not being on camera is preferable. Licensed professionals can use these approaches effectively in remote sessions, and the focus remains on clear skills, steady support, and practical changes.
