About Stefanie
Stefanie Moreno is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, practicing in Virginia with ten years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting, family concerns, depression, addictions, and relationship issues. Stefanie lists blended family issues among her additional focus areas and helps people manage day-to-day expectations while processing difficult events.
Her background includes work across behavioral health and human services in both public and private settings. That experience covers group homes, psychiatric facilities, and private practice. She has supported people through grief, divorce and co-parenting challenges, and crises linked to trauma and mood disorders.
In sessions she uses a mix of approaches drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy alongside mindfulness and motivational interviewing. Stefanie also draws on psychodynamic ideas and family-systems thinking when helpful. Conversations tend to be practical and skills-focused, with attention to emotional regulation and problem solving.
She commonly helps people who are coping with life changes such as separation or becoming part of a blended household, and with issues like codependency, communication problems, and caregiver stress. Treatment often includes learning new coping strategies, building routines, and addressing unhelpful thinking patterns.
Stefanie works in English and practices in Virginia. Her sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and costs vary by location. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.
How her clinical approaches translate to online work
Stefanie commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through practical exercises and homework. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, and problems with routines and sleep.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT skills are practical tools for managing strong emotions and improving communication in stressful relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Stefanie will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying strategies, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan as needed.
