Stefanie Moreno, LCSW

Stefanie Moreno is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Virginia with ten years of clinical experience. She works with people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, relationship strain, and issues around anger and impulse control. Stefanie uses straightforward language and practical strategies during sessions to help people manage emotions and daily demands.

She has worked across public and private behavioral health settings, including group homes, psychiatric facilities, and private practice. That background shapes a clinical style that blends symptom-focused work with attention to life context. Sessions often combine skill-building with space to talk through painful events and patterns.

Stefanie draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to teach concrete coping skills and shift unhelpful thinking. She also uses Motivational Interviewing to support change and Imago Relationship Therapy when communication and connection are central concerns. Mindfulness practices are integrated when helpful for stress and emotional regulation.

Her work includes supporting people with mood disorders, obsessive behaviors, panic, grief, body image and eating-related issues, caregiver stress, and blended family challenges. She also helps people facing life transitions such as divorce, pregnancy and childbirth, and recovery from addiction.

Stefanie aims for clear, practical sessions where goals are discussed openly. She encourages collaborative planning, homework or exercises when useful, and steady progress on manageable steps toward better emotion regulation and everyday functioning.
