Hello, I am Jasmine Walker! I am a proud graduate of The University of Maryland, Baltimore School of Social Work where I specialized in clinical social work with a focus on children and families. When I am not in the therapeutic space, I am very intentional about pouring into self through exercising, playing basketball, and traveling the world. I am seen by many as a social butterfly who enjoys meeting new people and trying new things. I've learned that to show up as my best for my clients, I first have to take care of self. With over 10 years of experience in therapy and care coordination, I bring a holistic lens to the work we will do together. My approach considers both your internal experiences and the external factors shaping your life, which helps me see the full story behind a person's strengths and challenges. I am passionate about supporting individuals through life's challenges with compassion, authenticity, and understanding. My practice is rooted in a person-centered approach, emphasizing empathy, respect, and the belief that every person holds the capacity for growth and self-discovery. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and adults across a wide range of emotional and behavioral needs. My clinical background includes working with children who have experienced trauma, individuals navigating anxiety, as well as adults who are moving through major life transitions or adjusting to new chapters in their lives. I take a compassionate and collaborative approach meeting individuals where they are, helping them to slow down, understand their emotional world, and build strategies that make real change possible. Whether you're managing stress, coping with anxiety, rebuilding after difficult experiences, or simply working to deepen your self-awareness, I'm here to walk alongside you with support.

Hello, my name is Michelle. I believe therapy is a time to examine internalized experiences that shape our perspectives and behaviors. Engaging in introspective work together can challenge us to reframe maladaptive thoughts. I aim to assist clients with managing emotional dysregulation and symptoms associated with depression, anxiety, and trauma in a safe, nonjudgmental space. I hope to foster growth and strengthen coping skills during difficult transitional points in a person’s life. I am interested in exploring my clients' family of origin and attachment styles. I have a special sensitivity to sociocultural factors and intergenerational trauma. I embrace the complexities that make up the lived experiences of my clients and affirm their unique identities.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by District of Columbia rather than a neighborhood like Adams Morgan?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across District of Columbia from The Navy Yard to Georgetown! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in District of Columbia.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

What are the "Clients say I’m" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
