About Patricia
Patricia Hall is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Virginia with five years of LPC experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, mood concerns such as bipolar and depression, addictions, relationship and parenting stress, grief, and ADHD. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.
Patricia uses straightforward, practical methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thought patterns that keep problems going. She also uses client-centered techniques to listen and prioritize what the individual brings to the session.
When trauma is part of the story, she applies trauma-focused methods and elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help manage strong emotions and improve coping. Therapy focuses on concrete skills people can try between sessions, like small behavior changes and simple ways to test worried thoughts.
Her background includes work in outpatient and inpatient settings and experience with children, teens, and adults. Patricia has worked with people across a wide range of concerns, including substance use and gender identity issues.
Outside of practice she spends time with her teenage child, volunteers at an animal shelter, and enjoys outdoor activities. She mentions a personal connection to animal care and has several dogs, which influences her outside interests and volunteer choices.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Patricia commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map thinking patterns and test small behavioral changes. CBT focuses on noticing thoughts, trying different responses, and tracking what helps, which works well in short, practical online check-ins.She also draws on client-centered therapy, which emphasizes listening and shaping sessions around the person's concerns, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Client-centered work keeps the agenda driven by the person, while DBT skills give concrete tools for managing intense feelings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Patricia will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and circumstances. That discussion guides what skills to practice and how sessions are structured.
The biography does not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. These practical benefits can help people try focused CBT or skills-based DBT work without rearranging their whole schedule.
