About Kitty

Kitty Hall is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Virginia who blends practical skills with a relational, strengths-based approach.

Background and approach

With four years as a licensed clinician and over 14 years working with the geriatric community, she draws on a wide range of settings to support people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and relationship challenges. Kitty emphasizes empathy and collaboration while helping clients identify priorities and build sustainable coping skills.

Her practice integrates evidence-based methods such as EMDR for trauma processing alongside cognitive and acceptance-focused strategies to address mood concerns, ADHD-related struggles, and life transitions. Kitty has worked with individuals and families from varied backgrounds and uses personalized treatment goals to foster emotional balance, improve communication, and strengthen resilience.

She aims to help clients create meaningful change that aligns with their values and daily life demands.

Evidence-Informed Methods Adapted for Online Care

Kitty commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) in her work. ACT focuses on helping clients clarify personal values and take committed action while learning to accept uncomfortable thoughts and feelings, which can support coping with anxiety, life changes, and motivation-related challenges. EMDR is a trauma-focused approach that helps people process distressing memories and reduce their emotional impact, often used for clients experiencing trauma, grief, or ongoing symptoms from past events.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Kitty partners with each client to assess goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs, then tailors interventions so therapy feels relevant and manageable. She may combine acceptance, cognitive techniques, and trauma processing depending on what emerges in early sessions to help create a personalized plan.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access consistent support from Virginia-licensed professionals without needing to travel to an office.
