About Henrietta

Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with 12 years of experience, Henrietta Long-Hall focuses on addictions, mood disorders, anxiety, and relationship and life-change concerns. She works with people facing depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, grief, and stress. Henrietta also addresses process addictions such as gambling, exercise, and porn, and seasonal affective disorder (SAD). Sessions are conducted in English and she does not accept international clients.

Henrietta uses a mix of practical, evidence-informed methods. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to clarify values and build actions that matter. Her practice also incorporates Client-Centered Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy when those approaches fit the issue.

Her work often begins with concrete goals. She helps people weigh options, set achievable steps, and track what changes. For addictive behaviors she uses motivational techniques and structured problem-solving. For mood and anxiety concerns she uses CBT skills alongside values-based ACT work.

Henrietta has substantial experience supporting people through major life transitions, intense stress, and trauma-related concerns. She also brings attention to multicultural concerns when they affect coping and identity. Her approach is practical and collaborative, with a focus on clear skills and workable next steps.

To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Session cost varies by location and uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. Online sessions using ACT often include exercises to notice thoughts and commit to actions that align with personal goals, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is practical and skills-based. In virtual sessions it typically involves identifying unhelpful thoughts, trying alternative ways of thinking, and practicing behavioral experiments between meetings. This approach is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way to address ambivalence about change. Remotely, it is used to explore motivation, set achievable goals, and strengthen commitment to change, which can be helpful for substance and process addictions.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative step. The therapist will help figure out which methods fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences and will adjust methods as work progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people join without travel time. These practical benefits help integrate therapeutic work into everyday life.
