About Kitty

Kitty Hall is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Virginia with four years of clinical practice and more than 14 years working with older adults. She works with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and family concerns, and caregiving strain. She also supports people facing life changes, career questions, and issues such as ADHD, mood disorders, and panic.

Hall draws on several practical therapy methods to help people manage day-to-day problems. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thoughts and behaviors that get in the way. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take manageable steps toward them.

Her background includes long experience with the geriatric community and time supporting school-aged children across elementary and high school settings. That history shapes how she sees caregiving stress, hospice and end-of-life issues, and the limits many family caregivers face. She works with individuals who bring concerns about family relationships or the emotional toll of caring for a relative.

In sessions she often focuses on short-term skills alongside deeper processing when needed. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is part of her practice for people wanting help processing traumatic memories. Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused techniques appear when people want targeted behavior change or quick practical moves.

Her work is oriented toward clear goals and steady progress. People meet to talk through current struggles, learn concrete strategies, and make plans that fit everyday life. To begin, readers should confirm session options and follow the site’s booking steps.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people identify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values. Online ACT sessions often include exercises for noticing thoughts and committing to practical steps to reduce avoidance and increase meaningful activity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In remote CBT work people learn concrete skills such as behavioral activation, thought records, and graded exposure that can be practiced between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review goals, preferences, and current difficulties and suggest which methods to try. That collaborative decision means the plan can change as progress is made or new needs appear.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the options offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy caregiving schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Therapists can also use session time to set up practical homework and plan stepwise changes that match everyday life.
