Dana Hall

Dana Hall is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, and addiction. She also supports those dealing with grief, parenting strain, ADHD, self-esteem struggles, and career or life-purpose questions. Dana’s approach is direct, warm, and nonjudgmental so people can speak openly and start making practical changes.

She draws on 20 years of experience in education and mental health. That work included roles in treatment facilities, crisis management, supervision, and program development. This background informs how she structures sessions and responds when things feel urgent or overwhelming.

Dana combines techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. Sessions focus on building skills like emotional regulation, mindfulness, and clearer communication. She aims to help clients identify what matters to them and take steps toward it.

Her style is empathetic and strength-based. Dana emphasizes practical tools people can use between sessions. She encourages honest conversation about life events, family of origin issues, abandonment, chronic illness, and other deep concerns that show up in daily life.

People who want to change patterns, lessen symptoms, or regain a sense of direction will find structured support and collaborative planning. Dana respects each person’s story and works with them to set realistic goals and track progress over time.

How Dana’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It’s useful for anxiety, depression, and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thinking and behavior patterns that keep problems going and building new skills to change them. It is often used for anxiety, mood, and coping with stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete tools for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships; those skills can help when emotions feel intense or unpredictable.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences, and recommend approaches that fit. That decision is collaborative and can shift as progress is made.

The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten check-ins when people need quick support, and let clients meet from wherever works best for their schedule. Licensed professionals can use therapeutic tools like mindfulness practice, CBT worksheets, behavioral experiments, and emotion regulation coaching in virtual sessions to help people build skills and stay on track.
