Dr. Jasmine Jones
Hello! My name is Dr. Abey Muthoni, and I am so thrilled for the opportunity to get to know you and be part of your life journey! I was born and raised in Kenya, and have lived in the U.S. for 20 years. I earned my doctorate degree in Counseling Psychology at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL), and I am a licensed psychologist in Virginia. My treatment approach is integrative, with primary roots in relational-cultural, person-centered, and narrative therapy approaches. In therapy with clients, there is a strong emphasis on empowerment, honoring clients’ cultural worldview and subjective reality, consideration of sociocultural and sociopolitical influences, capitalization of strengths and supportive resources, using the therapeutic relationship to facilitate corrective experiences, as well as collaborating with clients to identify goals and action steps that will promote improved overall well-being.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In your first session with me, you will be welcomed with a warm smile and an affirming atmosphere. In the first session, I like to take the time to get to know you, and ways that I can support you in this season of your life. During our first session, we will also discuss ways that we can collaborate to work towards your goals.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My strengths include demonstrating genuine care and compassion, co-creating a safe and affirming environment, collaborative, multiculturally aware and sensitive, building on strengths and supportive resources, promoting hope and empowerment, fostering mutuality and corrective experiences, and cultivating liberating and growth-fostering experiences.

Culturally Sensitive Therapy
My treatment approach is integrative, with primary roots in relational-cultural, person-centered, and narrative therapy approaches. In therapy with clients, there is a strong emphasis on empowerment, liberation, honoring clients’ cultural worldview and subjective reality, consideration of sociocultural and sociopolitical influences, capitalization of strengths and supportive resources, using the therapeutic relationship to facilitate corrective experiences, as well as collaborating with clients to identify goals and action steps that will promote improved overall well-being. My clinical specialty areas include Black diaspora issues, immigrant and international student issues, racial and ethnic minority issues, intercultural issues, identity exploration, life transition and adjustment concerns, family of origin and relationship concerns, faith/spirituality, trauma, grief and loss, and academic and job-related concerns. I am also passionate about cultural diversity issues and strive to learn and put into practice culturally-responsive ways that I can best support clients as they explore their intersecting cultural identities and related systems of power and oppression.
