About Hope

Hope Holman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Virginia with a decade of experience in mental health care. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, ADHD, grief, and a broad range of life changes.

Background and approach

Hope emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental stance that helps clients feel heard while they explore goals and coping strategies. Her approach blends evidence-based techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy with mindfulness and motivational methods, tailoring interventions to each person’s strengths and needs.

Over her career she has worked in diverse settings and with varied age groups, and she brings a strengths-focused, encouraging style to sessions. Hope aims to create a collaborative space where clients can unpack challenges, build resilience, and move toward healthier patterns.

Clients seeking assistance with family dynamics, parenting, body image, career transitions, or coping with emotional pain will find a practical, empathic clinician who values incremental progress. She frames therapy as a partnership and supports each person’s journey toward greater balance and well-being.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Access

Hope integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into her work, using CBT to help identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and ACT to support values-driven action and psychological flexibility. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which prioritizes empathy, respect, and collaboration so clients feel understood as they explore change.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and she treats it as a collaborative effort. Together with each client she reviews goals, preferences, and responses to different methods and adapts the plan as progress unfolds, creating a tailored strategy rather than prescribing a single path from the outset.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility for people balancing work, family, or mobility limits. These formats allow ongoing therapeutic contact, timely check-ins, and varied ways to engage with skills and reflection, making it easier to fit consistent support into a busy life.
