About Jennifer

Jennifer Moragas is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York. She uses practical, down-to-earth approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns, addiction issues, and parenting challenges. Her style is warm and relaxed, and she aims to create a space where someone can talk honestly and figure out next steps.

She trained with a master’s degree in mental health and has been practicing for 11 years.

Background and approach

Jennifer blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing into sessions to help clients identify unhelpful patterns and set realistic goals. Sessions focus on real-life strategies that can be used between appointments. In sessions she talks through symptoms and everyday struggles in plain language.

For someone wrestling with depression, ADHD, grief, or relationship stress, she works to break issues into manageable steps. She also addresses self-esteem, bipolar concerns, trauma and abuse, and other challenges listed in her specialties. Jennifer continues to attend trainings to keep her skills current.

She lives in upstate New York and draws on personal experience with anxiety and depression when connecting with clients. That background informs her empathy and practical focus rather than defining how she practices. Her approach centers on collaboration.

She helps clients set goals, practices new skills in session, and adjusts plans based on what works. The aim is steady, achievable progress rather than quick fixes.

Using CBT and Motivational Interviewing in online care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. It is practical and skill-focused, often using small exercises to build new habits between sessions. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday struggles.

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way to talk about change. It helps a person find their own reasons for making changes and builds motivation in a nonjudgmental way. This style is often helpful for addictions and for people who feel stuck about starting new routines.

Choosing the right approach happens together. The therapist will listen to your needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest strategies to try. Plans are adjusted based on what helps, so therapy remains a team effort rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.

Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to access support from home. Licensed professionals can use these formats to teach skills, set goals, and check progress in ways that match different lifestyles and needs.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Motivational Interviewing

A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
