I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges, including trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship concerns. I believe healing begins in a space built on trust, compassion, and genuine connection. My goal is to help you feel supported, understood, and empowered as you move toward the life you want to create. My approach to therapy is positive, holistic, and collaborative. I believe each person's journey is unique, and we will work together at a pace that feels comfortable for you. Therapy should never feel rushed or pressured. Instead, it should provide space for healing, self-discovery, self-care, and meaningful personal growth. I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental environment where you feel safe sharing your story and exploring the experiences that have shaped your life. Using a trauma-informed and strengths-based approach, I help clients develop insight, build resilience, and navigate difficult emotions, life transitions, and relationship challenges with greater confidence and clarity. Whether you're working through painful past experiences, managing current stressors, or seeking a deeper sense of balance and well-being, you don't have to face it alone. Healing is possible, and I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward hope, growth, and lasting change.

There is a moment in every person’s story when something says, “I can’t keep doing this the same way.” That moment matters. It may be quiet, messy, unexpected, or long overdue—but it can also be the beginning of something different. After more than 20 years in behavioral health and over 11 years as a clinician, I’ve learned that therapy is not about having all the answers. It’s about having a place to stop, breathe, tell the truth about where you are, and discover where you want to go next.

Hi, I'm Key Hammonds, LCSW and yes, I'm the therapist who will make you laugh and help you breakthrough in the same session. I'm a NYC native, a mom, a community member, and a Licensed Clinician with over 18 years of experience. I earned my Master's in Social Work from NYU, but honestly some of my most important education has come from living life, navigating motherhood, doing my own healing work and overcoming adversity. This taught me resilience isn't just a buzzword, it's a practice. I practice what I preach. I believe deeply in therapy not as a last resort, but as an everyday act of self-care and courage. I will show up for you with honesty, humor, warmth, and zero judgment.

I am compassionate, empathetic, and nonjudgmental. My approach is rooted in the belief that you are the expert on yourself, and my role is to empower you to discover your strengths and make choices that feel right for you.
