Are You Ready to Move from Old Patterns to New Possibilities?
Hi, I’m Rebecca Hammond
I’m a Stanford and Harvard-trained psychiatrist. I believe that meaningful change happens through new emotional learning. Together, we work to understand the expectations and habits that shape how you experience yourself, relate to others, and respond to life’s challenges—not simply to gain insight, but to create new experiences that allow you to perceive, relate, and respond differently. My approach combines careful attunement to your emotional experience with a neuroscience-informed understanding of the mind, relationships, and how lasting change occurs.
How I Help
In therapy, we become curious about your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and experiences. We illuminate longstanding patterns and create new experiences that give you greater flexibility with how you relate with yourself and others. I work with individuals, couples and groups. I also provide medication management services as appropriate.
Get it, Together
Individual therapy offers one important relationship. Group therapy offers many. As familiar patterns unfold in real time, group members can better understand how they affect and are affected by others, receive honest feedback, and practice new ways of relating—leading to more satisfying relationships outside the therapy room.
My approach
My practice focuses on fostering new emotional learning for people stuck in patterns of suffering, so they can lead deliberate and fulfilling lives. I draw from a range of therapeutic techniques based on what will be most helpful for each individual or couple.
