I’m a very logical person, and I thought I could think my way out of any problem. But my anxiety felt different, like a tangled mess I couldn’t sort through. Dr. Hammett’s approach was perfect for me. She didn’t just listen, she gave me a framework. She taught me practical, concrete techniques to challenge my own thought patterns. It was like learning a new skill. The work is ongoing, but I finally feel like I have the right tools for the job. Her method is both deeply compassionate and incredibly effective.
