Meet Your Therapist

Hey, I’m Jasmine! A Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) with 7 years of experience walking alongside individuals and families through the hard, beautiful, messy work of healing. I earned my Masters of Social Work from Albany State University in May 2021. I have completed Advanced Training for Perinatal Mental Health and Mood and Anxiety Disorders from Postpartum Support International (PSI). Additionally, I have been trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) through a perinatal lens with The Touchstone Institute.

Picking a therapist is personal, and I get that. If you want someone who speaks your language (literally and figuratively), understands the unique struggles of millennial adulthood and motherhood, and won’t make therapy feel like a chore, I’m your person. My job isn’t to “fix” you—it’s to help you see your own strength and rewrite the narratives that no longer serve you. Let’s dive in and start working toward a life that feels more connected and fulfilling—whether you’re navigating trauma, perinatal mental health, or any other damn thing life throws your way. Ready to do this? Let’s connect and start your healing journey together.

I am currently under clinical supervision of Rikki McCoy, LCSW

MY APPROACH

Treatment Approaches…

  • EMDR helps you process painful experiences that are still stuck in your nervous system — like trauma, difficult memories, or even moments that felt “too much” at the time. I love using EMDR because it gets to the root without requiring you to rehash every detail. It’s powerful, body-based, and helps you finally feel like the past isn’t running the show anymore.

  • Mindfulness helps you slow down, tune in, and get out of survival mode. Whether it’s grounding during a panic spiral or learning to respond instead of react, these practices bring you back to your body and your present moment. I love mindfulness because it gives you tools you can actually use in the middle of real-life chaos — like during a toddler meltdown or a 3 a.m. feeding.

  • IFS helps you understand the different “parts” of yourself — the anxious part, the angry part, the part that wants to shut down — and learn to work with them instead of fighting them. I love this model because it’s so compassionate and validating. It helps you make sense of your inner world and respond to yourself with care, not judgment.

  • Narrative therapy helps you untangle the stories you’ve been told—or have told yourself—about what it means to be a “good mom,” a partner, a daughter, or a woman. Whether it’s generational messages, cultural pressure, or past trauma, we’ll explore where those beliefs came from and how they’ve shaped the way you see yourself. I love this approach because it gives you permission to rewrite your story with compassion, truth, and power. You get to decide who you are—not your past, not your pain.

AT THE END OF THE DAY…

My goal is to help you feel more connected to yourself, more in control of your story, and more confident in how you show up—in motherhood and in life.

Therapy isn’t about avoiding hard times. It’s about getting to the root of what’s keeping you stuck, understanding where it comes from, and learning how to move through it with clarity and compassion. It’s about noticing the patterns that keep repeating, facing the parts of yourself you’ve been avoiding, and practicing new ways of responding that actually feel sustainable. Once you have the support and tools that meet you where you are, healing doesn’t have to take forever—and it doesn’t have to feel like you’re doing it all alone.

You start making decisions from a grounded place, guided by what feels right for you instead of what you think you “should” do. You stop performing, pleasing, and over-functioning, and instead create space to respond rather than react. And you begin to live from the version of yourself that feels the most honest, free, and aligned, showing up fully for your kids, your relationships, and yourself.
