About Stefanie
Stefanie Moreno, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Virginia, has 10 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and relationship and intimacy-related issues. Her work also covers addictions, grief, sleeping and eating concerns, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, bipolar and coping with life changes.
Moreno focuses on practical skills for emotion regulation and day-to-day coping. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Imago Relationship Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing in sessions. Conversations often include skill practice, identifying unhelpful patterns, and setting small, concrete goals.
Her background includes work in behavioral health and human services in public and private settings, group homes, psychiatric facilities, and private practice. That range shapes a straightforward clinical style. Sessions draw on ideas from trauma-informed CBT, DBT strategies, and relationship-focused work when relevant.
She helps people address family and parenting stresses, blended family issues, caregiver strain, communication problems, divorce and separation, and family of origin concerns. She also works with mood and impulse-related problems such as panic, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, and impulsivity.
Stefanie approaches eating and body image difficulties, pregnancy and childbirth concerns, and compassion fatigue with practical techniques and reflective conversation. Her aim is to support clearer thinking, steadier emotions, and more effective daily routines. The first meeting typically clarifies goals and next steps.

How her approaches translate to online care
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and problems with sleep or eating. DBT, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. It helps with intense emotions, impulsivity, and relationship patterns. Imago Relationship Therapy centers on improving communication and understanding between partners using structured dialogue and reflection.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about symptoms, goals, and preferences. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time based on what helps.
Confirm current session formats before booking. If you plan to use online sessions, consider practical benefits such as fitting appointments into a workday, reducing travel time, or choosing a shorter check-in when time is limited. Online work can make it easier to keep consistent appointments and practice skills between sessions. Ask about specific session options when you schedule to match format, timing, and clinical goals.
