Patricia Hall, LPC

Patricia Hall is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Virginia who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and addiction. She practices in a way that aims to make people feel accepted and able to share what matters to them. Patricia brings a calm, straightforward presence to sessions and focuses on practical steps people can use between meetings.

She uses a trauma-focused approach and draws on client-centered methods to follow each person’s pace and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy are part of her toolbox when skills work or thinking patterns need attention. Patricia tailors strategies to fit everyday life, aiming for clear goals and simple tools clients can try right away.

Patricia trained in counseling and holds a Master’s degree in Professional Counseling. She has five years of work as a Licensed Professional Counselor and experience in both outpatient and inpatient settings. That mix informs how she helps people navigate crisis moments and longer-term struggles.

She also has a long-standing interest in working with LGBT+ people and wants clients to feel they can be their authentic selves in therapy. Patricia has worked with children, teens, and adults and understands how different ages bring different needs to sessions.

Outside of work she spends time with her teenage child, enjoys being outdoors, volunteers at a local animal shelter, and cares for several dogs. These personal interests shape her down-to-earth style in sessions.

How these approaches translate to online work

Patricia uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow a person’s pace, listen closely, and build on what feels most important. That approach is about being heard and making therapy relevant to each person’s daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing simple behavior changes to reduce anxiety, panic, and mood symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Patricia will talk with each client about goals and preferences, then suggest whether client-centered listening, CBT skills, or trauma-focused work should guide sessions. She aims to collaborate so the plan fits the client’s needs rather than imposing a single method.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can help fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it easier to keep momentum between appointments. Licensed professionals can use online work to practice skills, review coping plans, and move at a pace that matches everyday life.
