About Steve

Steve Hammond is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia. He brings 11 years of experience and a straightforward approach to sessions. He listens, asks clear questions, and helps clients shape practical next steps.

Steve focuses on helping people who are stressed, anxious, or facing relationship and intimacy-related struggles. He also supports those dealing with depression, addiction, grief, trauma and abuse, and challenges around self-esteem and identity. He offers care for people working through parenting strain, codependency, communication problems, and issues connected to adoption and attachment.

In sessions he blends several evidence-informed approaches with his personal faith perspective. He says faith informs his practice but he does not preach. The goal is to work with each person where they are and move toward concrete changes that feel manageable.

Steve aims for practical conversations and clear tools. Expect a calm, direct tone, questions that get to the heart of the problem, and time to choose next steps together. He also mentions sensitivity toward people who have had negative experiences with religious communities.

He provides counseling in English and Dutch. His practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients use the continue button on this profile, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to availability.

Approaches that guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful connection so people can find their own solutions; it helps when someone wants a supportive space to talk and be heard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches concrete skills to notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try methods that match those needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are normal as therapy progresses.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as specifics are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into work or family schedules, shorten check-ins when time is limited, and avoid travel time. It can also allow for phone-based check-ins when bandwidth is low or a shorter conversation is needed. Licensed professionals help tailor session length and pace so therapy fits everyday life rather than requiring big schedule changes.
