Mary Alexandra Hammond, MSW, RSW

Provider information

Description

My path into this work is both professional and personal. I became a mother as a teenager and raised three children into adulthood—an experience that shaped me deeply. Like many I work with, I’ve navigated healing, growth, and uncertainty. Therapy has helped me reconnect with myself, strengthen relationships, and move through hard things with more clarity. I bring that lived experience into my work—not as someone with all the answers, but as someone who understands how hard and how hopeful this process can be.

Summary

I'm a Registered Social Worker and nurse with 13+ years of healthcare experience. As a Connected Parenting practitioner, I support parents and caregivers in building strong, resilient relationships. My work is rooted in compassion, neuroscience, and lived experience—as a teen mom turned parent of three adults. I offer a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered. At Leave the Light On Therapy Studio, the door is open and the light is on.
