About Stefanie

Stefanie Moreno is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Virginia with a decade of clinical experience. She draws on extensive work across behavioral health, psychiatric settings, group homes, and independent practice to help people navigate trauma, emotional regulation, and the everyday stresses that can feel overwhelming.

Background and approach

Her training and background support a practical, skill-oriented approach that addresses immediate concerns while exploring underlying patterns. Stefanie combines evidence-informed therapies with a holistic perspective that honors the connections among mind, body, and spirit.

She uses methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy alongside motivational interviewing and relationship-focused techniques to tailor care. Stefanie works with people facing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and family issues, addiction-related concerns, ADHD, mood and impulse challenges, and other life transitions.

She seeks to collaborate with each person to build coping skills, improve communication, and restore a sense of balance and agency.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions support them

Stefanie frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; CBT is practical and goal-oriented, often useful for anxiety, mood challenges, and many day-to-day stressors. She also integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to build emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for strong emotions, impulsivity, and relationship strain.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Stefanie works with each person to clarify their goals, preferences, and immediate needs, and then adapts techniques from these models so the plan fits the individual rather than forcing a single method.

Online sessions via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to access consistent support while balancing work, family, and other commitments. These options offer flexibility in scheduling and format so people can practice new skills in real time and maintain momentum between meetings with a licensed professional.
