Hi, I'm Jasmine. My motto is "I show up authentically myself so that you can show up authentically yourself." My passion is to create a safe place so that you can express yourself without judgment. Sometimes we have big feelings and we need someone to help us make sense of them. That's where I am come in! During our work together we will process your feelings so that we can get to the deeper meaning of WHY! Why am I feeling this way? Why do these things keep happening to me? And why does it feel like I'm going crazy? Processing through the "Why" can help us get to the HOW! How do I cope with these feelings?

With a team of 6 therapists, our goal is to provide a level of life experience and expertise to meet our clients where they are. We understand that seeking counseling can be scary, which is why we work hard to create a safe space for our clients to explore any and all areas of their lives. We do not take a cookie cutter approach to therapy, our team is trained to tailor therapy to the individual. We will work with you to establish realistic goals, and achieve them, through working with a therapist on our team who best meets your needs.
