She is double board-certified in both general psychiatry and addiction medicine, with specialized expertise in substance use disorders, reproductive mental health, and the full range of psychiatric conditions.

At the heart of Dr. Hammond’s practice is a commitment to listening first. She takes the time to understand each patient’s history, concerns, and goals before making an assessment. From there, she works collaboratively to develop a treatment plan that aligns with their values and lifestyle. Whether addressing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance problems, or the complexities of reproductive mental health – including medication considerations during pregnancy, fertility challenges, and pregnancy loss – she offers expert guidance with unwavering support.

Dr. Hammond is a fierce advocate for her patients, ensuring they receive the care and respect they deserve. She believes that mental health care should be accessible, stigma-free, and empowering.
