About me
Are you feeling stuck, unempowered or overall lost? Pain is a part of life, but you don't have to go through it alone. When life gets too overwhelming, we often experience confusion, disillusionment, disappointment, anger, sadness, fear, addiction, or a sense of numbness. I create a non-judgmental and empathetic environment to explore your thoughts and emotions, where we can find solutions together. My goal is to empower you to uncover your strengths and find your path toward building and reclaiming the healthy life you deserve.

I’ve always struggled with talking about how I feel but Yasmine made me feel extremely comfortable. Not only did she listen to me I could feel that she cared! I’m looking forward to our next sessions and to building a bond with her!
