About Jenna

Jenna Moenius is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - Certified (LCSW-C) practicing in Maryland with 11 years of experience. She has worked in educational and inpatient settings and supports adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, anger, depression, addictions, and related concerns.

Jenna uses clear, direct conversation to help people spot patterns that keep them stuck. She draws from client-centered approaches and cognitive behavioral ideas to make problems easier to name and to break into manageable steps. Sessions focus on practical skills as well as understanding how past experiences shape current reactions.

With a background in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral approaches, Jenna pays attention to how trauma and mood issues interact. She helps people learn ways to reduce intense reactions and to handle strong emotions without overwhelming disruption to daily life. Work can include skill practice, pacing, and checking what strategies actually help outside of session.

She also uses mindfulness techniques to support attention, stress regulation, and impulse control. Those tools are offered alongside cognitive strategies to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns that fuel anger, anxiety, or low mood.

Jenna’s prior roles in schools and inpatient settings inform a clear focus on safety, structure, and steady progress. People who want straightforward, skills-focused work to manage anger, cope with trauma, or handle life changes may find this approach useful.

How her approaches translate to online work

Jenna uses client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral techniques in a straightforward way. Client-centered work means she listens to what matters most to the person and uses that to guide each session. Cognitive behavioral work focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small, practical behavior changes to lower anger and anxiety.

She also integrates mindfulness exercises to support attention and emotional regulation. Mindfulness practice can help people notice rising anger without immediately acting on it, and it pairs with CBT skills to test what changes actually help in daily life.

Finding the right combination of methods is part of the work. Jenna approaches that collaboratively, discussing goals and preferences and adjusting techniques as progress and needs become clearer. The first sessions are often about prioritizing concerns and choosing a short plan to try.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit work into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time to appointments. A therapist can also suggest between-session exercises and brief tools that fit into everyday routines.
