About Monique
Monique Trump Snelson is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with eight years of clinical experience based in Michigan. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem, coping with life changes, and related challenges. Monique also sees people dealing with trauma, grief, parenting strain, career stress, ADHD, and intimacy-related issues.
Her approach is practical and skills-focused. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test different responses. Attachment-Based Therapy and client-centered methods guide conversations about relational patterns and communication.
In a typical session she helps people notice thought patterns, try small behavior changes, and practice new ways of reacting. She names specific skills to use between meetings and checks how they worked at the next appointment. Sessions also include work on boundaries, managing anger, sleep routines, and coping strategies for major life changes.
Monique draws from dialectical behavior therapy and mindfulness when emotion regulation or distress tolerance are needed. That often means learning short grounding exercises and step-by-step ways to tolerate strong feelings. She blends these methods to match what the person wants to change and what feels doable.
People who contact her usually want concrete tools and clearer communication. The focus is on short-term problem solving and building routines that reduce day-to-day stress. Practical steps and measurable progress are central to how she structures care.
How Monique uses CBT, attachment work, and mindfulness online
Monique commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and test unhelpful thoughts. CBT sessions typically include tracking thoughts, planning small behavior experiments, and reviewing results to refine next steps.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to examine relationship patterns and communication habits. This approach looks at how past relationships shape current reactions and focuses on clearer, more effective ways to connect with others. Client-centered methods keep the conversation focused on the person's priorities and choices rather than a set agenda.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Monique collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. That can mean starting with CBT exercises, adding mindfulness skills for emotion regulation, or using attachment-focused conversations when relationship patterns are central.
