About Patricia
Patricia Hall is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Virginia. She focuses on helping people who are feeling stressed, anxious, depressed, or overwhelmed by life changes. Parents and individuals often turn to her for help with mood concerns, addiction, grief, and identity-related struggles.
Patricia uses a client-centered approach that keeps the person’s goals and experience at the center of sessions. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and trauma-focused methods when they fit a person's needs. In practice, this means she listens first, then works with each person to try practical ways to reduce symptoms and cope with hard moments.
Her background includes five years of experience as an LPC working across outpatient and inpatient settings. She has worked with people who face a wide range of concerns, including mood disorders, ADHD, panic, substance use, and trauma-related issues. Patricia aims to create space where people can speak openly about identity, relationships, and difficult feelings.
Patricia has a particular interest in supporting LGBT+ people and those processing parenting challenges, grief, or compassion fatigue. She mentions enjoying outdoor time and family life outside of work, and she volunteers at a local animal shelter.
People who meet with Patricia can expect straightforward conversation and concrete strategies to try between sessions. She encourages collaboration so goals stay practical and relevant to each person’s life.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person in front of the therapist. It emphasizes listening, acceptance, and helping people set their own goals. This approach is often helpful for people who want space to talk through identity, relationship, or grief issues while staying in charge of the pace.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers clear exercises and small experiments to reduce anxiety, panic, or depressive patterns. DBT methods teach specific skills for emotion regulation and impulse control, which can help with anger, self-harm urges, and intense mood swings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then recommend methods to try. This is a collaborative process and can change as needs evolve.
If you prefer online sessions, confirm the available formats before booking so they match your needs. Many people find that remote appointments make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Ask about how sessions are scheduled and what to expect so therapy can be arranged to work with your routine.
