Theo Hammond, LCSW

Theo Hammond is an LCSW based in Florida who focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress, trauma, and low self-esteem. He uses clear, practical steps to help clients feel steadier and more connected. Theo speaks English and offers sessions by video, phone, chat, or messaging.

His style is collaborative and down-to-earth. Sessions begin by talking about what’s most pressing and figuring out small, manageable changes. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and builds skills to respond differently in daily life.

Theo also blends client-centered listening with mindfulness practices. That means he pays attention to what matters to each person and introduces breathing, grounding, and attention skills to reduce overwhelm. For people with painful memories, he offers trauma-focused approaches that focus on safety and paced processing.

He helps with many concerns including stress, depression, parenting-related strain, intimacy and sexuality issues, eating and body image problems, addiction, and feelings of isolation or shame. Theo pays attention to how life transitions and relationships affect mood and choices.

Sessions are practical and relational. He checks in about what’s working and adapts approaches to fit goals. New clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first appointment. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How Theo’s Approaches Work Online

Theo combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness in online sessions to help people change unhelpful thinking and manage stress. CBT focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior and trying small experiments to test new ways of coping. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce overwhelm and improve focus.

He also uses trauma-focused methods when needed to carefully work through painful memories without pushing too fast. These approaches are offered collaboratively - the therapist and client decide together what fits best based on goals, concerns, and personal preference. That shared planning helps shape which techniques are used and how sessions are paced.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions are good for in-depth work and face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging offer a flexible way to send thoughts between sessions or get brief support during the week. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different routines.
