About
Welcome! My name is Dr. Hammond and I am licensed in Washington, Michigan, and 40 states through PSYPACT. I believe that feeling understood and building trust are at the heart of meaningful work together. I strive to create a space grounded in compassion, curiosity, open-mindedness, humor, and authenticity. My approach is collaborative and tailored to you, honoring your unique life experiences, culture, relationships, and identities. Additionally, I strive to understand your strengths and resources, and how those can be used to help you reach your goals. I’m looking forward to working with you!
My motivation for working with neurodivergent individuals stems from an appreciation and respect for diverse perspectives and experiences. I strive to provide a space where individuals feel empowered, and I am committed to providing evaluations that are comprehensive, affirming, and transparent. I’m here to help you learn more about yourself, answer any questions you might have, and highlight your unique strengths.
In my practice I believe in balancing acceptance and change, celebrating areas of strength and working on areas of growth, and honoring individual needs while also understanding societal expectations. I want every individual I work with to feel heard, seen, and understood. As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I value and appreciate diverse experiences, and strive to create an environment where these experiences are met with affirmation and respect. My goal is to help you love and appreciate your authentic self, feeling empowered in who you are. I’m here to offer encouragement and support throughout our work together.
