About Jenna
Jenna Moenius is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker-Clinical (LCSW-C) practicing in Maryland with 11 years of experience. She has worked in educational and inpatient settings and supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, anger, depression, and related concerns.
She uses direct, practical methods drawn from client-centered work and cognitive behavioral approaches. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, learning new coping responses, and practicing skills that reduce reactivity. Jenna also incorporates mindfulness and trauma-focused methods when those fit the issue.
Jenna's background includes a Master of Social Work from the University at Buffalo, completed in 2010, and a professional career that spans school-based and hospital settings. That variety informs how she helps people manage strong emotions and life changes, including challenges like ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and obsessive patterns.
People often come for help with anger that shows up at home or work, or with resentment that builds over time. Jenna works to break down how the pattern starts and to build clearer alternatives - calmer responses, steadier routines, and better communication when needed.
Sessions tend to be practical and focused on skills practice and real-world application. Jenna supports people facing caregiver stress, body image struggles, self-harm impulses, and social anxiety, helping them develop tools for daily life and to cope with setbacks.
To begin, she asks people to identify pressing problems and goals. From there she and the client map out small, achievable steps to reduce reactivity and strengthen coping over time.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and building a practical plan based on what the client says matters most. It helps people clarify goals and track progress in day-to-day life.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that keep problems going. It is useful for anger, anxiety, and mood symptoms because it targets triggers and teaches concrete coping skills.
Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and grounding practices that reduce reactivity. These exercises help slow automatic responses and improve present-moment noticing, which can lower the intensity of anger when it arises.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to weigh goals, symptoms, and personal preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. Adjustments are made as progress and feedback come in.
Confirm current session formats before booking so you know how she is meeting with people. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also makes it simpler to practice skills in the environments where problems actually happen, while still working with a licensed professional to plan next steps.
