Biography
Sandra Hammond, MA is a clinical therapist at Vendetti Wellness Group with a particular clinical interest in supporting adults with ADHD, especially women who discover or are diagnosed with ADHD in adulthood. She also works with clients experiencing anxiety, trauma, depression, and major life transitions, helping them better understand longstanding patterns while developing practical strategies for meaningful, lasting change.
Sandra's approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and active. She encourages clients to approach their experiences with curiosity rather than judgment, creating a therapeutic space where insight is paired with concrete tools for growth. Rather than simply listening from the sidelines, Sandra works collaboratively with clients by offering thoughtful observations, practical feedback, and evidence-based strategies tailored to each person's unique strengths, goals, and circumstances.
Her therapeutic approach draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Relational-Cultural Therapy, mindfulness, self-compassion, and DBT-informed interventions. Sandra also has a special interest in expressive writing interventions informed by the research of James W. Pennebaker as one of many evidence-based approaches to processing trauma, and supporting emotional healing.
Sandra believes meaningful change happens when clients gain both greater self-understanding and practical skills, allowing them to move through life with increased confidence, self-compassion, and resilience.
