Monique Trump Snelson, LMFT
Practical, attachment-focused therapy for everyday struggles
About Monique
Monique Trump Snelson is a licensed marriage and family therapist who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She guides clients toward clearer communication and more self-compassion in practical, steady steps.
Background and approach
Her style is warm and direct, aimed at real-world change rather than jargon-filled explanations. Monique works with adults facing life transitions, career strain, caregiving burnout, and the fallout from trauma and loss.
She helps people who struggle with sleep, anger, or attention challenges find more useful daily routines. Sessions often address how past attachments influence current patterns in relationships and self-worth.
Her approach blends Attachment-Based methods with client-centered listening and cognitive behavioral tools. That mix lets her focus on emotional connection while also teaching concrete skills for managing thoughts and behaviors.
She also draws on dialectical behavior strategies and mindfulness to support emotion regulation and stress reduction. With eight years of experience, Monique brings practical coaching alongside traditional therapy.
She helps clients set achievable goals, practice new ways of speaking and acting, and track small gains over time. People leave sessions with clear steps to try between meetings.
Monique is licensed in Indiana as an LMFT and holds an Alabama LMFT credential as well. She practices from Michigan and conducts sessions in English, offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging as formats for ongoing work.
Attachment and Skills-Focused Care Online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current feelings and behaviors. It helps people understand why they react a certain way in close relationships and supports building healthier ways of connecting.Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and reflecting so people feel understood and can find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical techniques for changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try first. That collaborative process means plans can shift as progress is made and new needs appear.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and situations. Video lets for visual connection and in-depth conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for short check-ins, and text messaging supports brief touchpoints throughout a week. These options make it easier to keep momentum and practice new skills between meetings.
