Lauren Hammond

I'm happy to meet you!

I'm a clinical psychologist who specializes in working with teens, young adults, and adults. I specialize in evidence-based treatments of depression, anxiety, and PTSD, and I love to help individuals build their own coping skills toolbox. I further specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ individuals exploring their sexual or gender identity, college students, active duty and veteran service members, and women in the family planning process or struggling with infertility.

I'm here to help you become your own therapist. Therapy only works if we build a strong relationship founded on trust, so we'll always start by getting to know each other first. After that, we'll pull from evidence-based approaches such as CBT, DBT, EMDR, PE, and positive psychology to help you reach your goals.

You can expect me to be collaborative, curious, genuine, and direct. I'll push you to set and meet your goals and focus on the changes that matter most in your life. Those goals may include improving your mood, handling stress better, building relationships, getting to know yourself, or even accepting the situations that you are unable to change.
