About Hope
Hope Holman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and major life changes. She speaks plainly and listens closely, offering a calm, encouraging presence for those who feel overwhelmed or stuck. Hope brings ten years of mental health experience to her work and practices from Virginia.
She focuses on practical steps clients can use day to day, such as changing unhelpful thinking patterns, building coping skills, and practicing mindfulness.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to be supportive and goal-oriented while respecting each person’s pace. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental. People can expect to be heard, to try small experiments between sessions, and to discuss real-life problems like parenting strain, work stress, sleep or eating concerns, and relationship communication.
Hope also addresses trauma, grief, and issues related to self-esteem and identity. Hope uses approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy to match the needs of each person. She draws on motivational interviewing and mindfulness practices when helpful to build motivation and reduce reactivity.
Before clinical practice she served in the Navy and later completed a Bachelor of Social Work and Master of Social Work at Saint Leo University. Her background includes work in outpatient settings, in-home therapy, group work, and support groups. That range informs how she adapts sessions to real life demands and schedules.

Online support
How Hope’s approaches translate to online therapy
Hope often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and test new behaviors. CBT works well for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns because it focuses on practical steps and short exercises.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to teach skills for accepting difficult feelings while clarifying personal values and taking committed action. ACT can be helpful for people coping with grief, chronic stress, or recurring intrusive thoughts.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Hope treats therapy as a collaboration and will tailor methods to a person’s goals, comfort level, and daily life. She checks in about what helps and adjusts plans as needed.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone calls work when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging is helpful for ongoing support between sessions. These options add flexibility for people juggling work, childcare, or travel.
