Dana Hall , LCPC

Dana Hall is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Illinois with 20 years of experience. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, and a range of other concerns. She accepts international clients and conducts work in English.

Dana draws on straightforward, practical methods in sessions. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to identify patterns and try concrete alternatives. Dialectical Behavior Therapy concepts such as emotional regulation and distress tolerance appear in her work when clients need skills for intense moments.

Her background includes roles in education, crisis management, professional consulting, and senior clinical supervision at several well-known treatment settings before private practice. That range informs how she approaches problems like addiction, chronic illness, parenting strain, and first responder stress. She also works with issues related to identity and LGBT concerns and follows relevant professional standards for transgender care.

Sessions focus on helping people name what drains them, test small changes, and build routines that reduce repeated flare-ups of anger, anxiety, or depression. Dana emphasizes practical skills alongside talking through the past when that helps. She is direct but respectful, and she aims to help clients build usable tools they can apply between sessions.

If someone wants to start, the process involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. Costs vary with location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
