Psychotherapist
Huda Badri, LPCC, completed her Master’s of Arts degree in Counseling and Psychological Services at St. Mary’s University.
As a therapist at Hamm Clinic, her goal is to provide a respectful, genuine, safe, and accepting space in order to establish a strong therapeutic relationship.

She is honored and excited to partner together in order to create a space to slow down, explore, challenge, and move to a space of balance. The modalities she uses include holistic and culturally responsive practice, strength-based and client-centered approach, solution-focused therapy, motivational interviewing, dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and brainspotting.
Huda is deeply committed to serving clients from an array of populations, including folks who identify as BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, Persons of Color) and other intersectional identities. She welcomes all who want to collaborate on their journey towards healing.
