About Jennifer
Jennifer Moragas is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York who focuses on practical support for parents managing stress, anxiety, and parenting challenges. She uses clear, down-to-earth language and a relaxed style to help people talk through problems and find workable next steps.
She has eleven years of experience in counseling and draws on a background that began with undergraduate studies in elementary education and psychology, followed by a master’s degree in mental health.
Background and approach
That path informs how she explains strategies in simple terms. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with attention to what feels doable for each person. Jennifer commonly helps people facing anxiety, depression, ADHD, addictions, grief, bipolar mood concerns, self-esteem struggles, relationship issues, and family-related stress.
She often pairs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Motivational Interviewing to break problems into concrete steps and support lasting change. The focus is on skills you can use between sessions. Her manner is warm and approachable, and she aims to create a calm space where a parent can talk honestly about daily pressures.
Humor and empathy are part of how she builds rapport and keeps conversations grounded. Outside of work she lives in upstate New York with her husband and three children and spends time outdoors, cooking, and staying active. That personal experience with parenting shapes a practical, realistic approach to helping people adjust routines, set boundaries, and reduce overwhelm.

How CBT and Motivational Interviewing translate to online care
Jennifer commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try small behavior changes. CBT breaks issues into clear steps and teaches practical tools for managing anxiety, low mood, and everyday stress.She also uses Motivational Interviewing to support people who feel stuck or ambivalent about change. That approach focuses on listening, building motivation, and helping someone choose goals that matter to them rather than pushing a plan on them.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels achievable. Together they decide whether to focus on skills practice, motivational conversations, or a blend of both.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful for in-depth, face-to-face conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is a concern. Live chat and text allow shorter check-ins, flexible scheduling, and ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around parenting and busy schedules.
