Daniel L. Hall, Ph.D.​
  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) 
    • CBT is a brief, skills-based therapy that is a gold standard in evidence-based psychotherapy. It focuses on addressing thinking patterns and behaviors.  
    • CBT can be used to treat emotional concerns such as anxiety and depression. 
    • CBT can also help with managing ADHD and reducing insomnia. 
    • Depending on goals for treatment, I may combine CBT with teaching skills in mindfulness meditation, relaxation, and stress management.

  • Coping with illness  
    • After diagnosis of a chronic or life-threatening illness, it is common to experience emotional difficulties due to changes in work or family responsibilities, external circumstances, or changes in the body.
    • Managing stress and uncertainty can be a chief difficulty. This is true for both patients and caregivers.  
    • I have specialized training in working with adults affected by cancer and other chronic illnesses (e.g., myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome, MS, diabetes).
 
  • Healthy behaviors
    • For a variety of reasons, it can be hard to change behaviors that affect your health.  Time, guilt, shame, or motivation may get in the way.  So can external factors, like work demands or limited access to trained providers.
    • I work with patients to improve their health by improving sleep, quitting smoking, reducing emotional eating, and increasing adherence to medications. ​
    • I offer cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), the gold standard treatment for treating chronic insomnia: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/insomnia/in-depth/insomnia-treatment/art-20046677​

I also provide consultation in the form of guest lectures and clinical supervision to psychology trainees and licensed providers.
