About me

Hey! I'm Jasmine. Are you ready to embark on a journey of self-exploration, healing, and recovery to cultivate a fulfilling life for yourself? Well, if this describes you, then welcome! The foundation of therapy encompasses the following tenets : safety, collaboration, authenticity, vulnerability, and willingness. Together, we will take these tenets to explore what's keeping you stuck in your life and work on achieving a healthy balance of self. I have collaborated with many individuals to meet their personal goals and address their concerns that are hindering them from living their most healthy and optimum lives. I am trained in ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy) and am passionate about assisting individuals to reprocess their traumatic and distressing memories and experiences so they can recover and take control of their lives once again. I am passionate about supporting individuals to explore healthier ways to cope with depression, stress, anxiety, phobias, and PTSD. My therapeutic approach is warm, authentic, and individualized, and I believe in tailoring my approach to you. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Somatic techniques, Gestalt, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Mindfulness approaches to guide individuals to meet their treatment goals. Many of us struggle with engaging in unhelpful and destructive ways of coping due to the unresolved wounds and pain from our childhoods and traumas, and I am a firm believer in exploring one's story to gain insight into the 'why' that shapes us to be the way we are so we can heal and be our most authentic selves and behave according to what we value most. If you're ready to live your most authentic life, I would consider it a privilege and honor to be apart of your recovery journey. I look forward to collaborating with you to be your favorite self.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Clients can expect and warm and casual conversation about their reasons for seeking therapy, sharing information about themselves that they are comfortable with sharing at that time, and discussing their goals for treatment.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My biggest strengths are holding space for difficult emotions, and helping nurture self compassion and empathy for one's self. Additionally, I'm skilled at helping individuals draw connections in their lives on where their unhelpful coping skills, thought patterns, traumas, and beliefs of self originate from. I'm an advocate for emotional resiliency and being in tune with one's emotions and being able to teach other's how to hold space for themselves and be more in touch with their emotions and bodily sensations, in order to live their lives more intuitively, rather than living solely for other's emotions or feeling like a shadow of themselves and not having control of their own lives.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

sexual trauma survivors, individuals with C-PTSD, clients suffering from depression and anxiety, life transitions, clients experiencing loss and experiencing grief

My treatment methods

Gestalt

I am a firm believer that in order to heal the present, we must heal the past. Many of the issues and challenges we face stem from our history, including our attachments, traumas, significant events, and things we witnessed and observed. I use this treatment method by helping my client explore their past as a way to gain insight and perspective on how they learned to interact with the world, how they view themselves, and how they learned to cope. Through this, clients are able to challenge unhelpful narratives and beliefs that they have learned to believe, heal deeply rooted traumas, and learn healthier strategies of coping.
