I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida . I practice a multifaceted approach of: Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Solution Based Theray, and Existentialism. I tailor treatment to the client’s needs allowing for individualized care. My counseling style is open and provides clients an area where they can explore the root of their current distress with no judgement and a sense of ease. My aim as your counselor is to allow you to put down the emotional baggage you have been carrying around and be free of that weight. I will help my clients navigate stressful decisions and/or situations in a safe environment. Together, we will focus on identifying your strengths and helping you to maximize them to overcome your obstacles. I'm here to help you sort through the things that are difficult right now, and offer you a safe place to be open and honest without fear of judgment. I encourage mindfulness techniques in my practice (i.e. meditation, deep breathing exercises, yoga, etc.) I am holistic in my approach and tailor therapy to the client’s needs.
That said, I also believe in the power of medicine ( psychiatry), and have seen first hand the benefits of medicine, in conjunction with therapy, have for an individual. The ultimate goal of my style of counseling is to leave the client with a sense of security in their abilities to cope with life and to ultimately be happier and their own healer.
Counseling can be just as important as physical exercise in terms of a mental workout. If you plan to have an impact in this world or just live your life, then you will most likely experience stress and negative emotions as a part of life. It is not only brave but healthy to seek out help as we all need it and are not immune to the trials that life puts in our way. A lot of life is out of our control but we find ways to react to it that allow us to thrive.
I studied at the University of Central Florida earning a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and at Nova Southeastern University where I earned a Master's in Mental Health Counseling. I spent a majority of my undergraduate degree studying and working in the anxiety clinic and the media and migrations lab on campus. There I participated in research designed to help alleviate anxiety symptoms and specific phobias. While earning my Master's degree I worked with at risk youths and young adults who were exposed to high degrees of stress. My post- graduate work was spent working with adults who suffered with addiction and mental health disorders. I worked with ages ranging from 9 to 60+ years of age throughout the past 12 years. A majority of my experience is in: stress management, depression, anxiety, constant worry, guilt, shame, fear, and life changes.
Once we decide to work together, I will challenge you to consider the areas in your life that are harmful to your mental health and how to begin to change them in order to live a healthier and happier way. Counseling doesn’t have to have a long time frame, and healing can happen faster once we harness your already built skill set in session. I am looking forward to helping you find the peace and/or path you are looking for to live the life you want.
You are taking the first in healing, I know it’s not easy, but I am here to help you . You don’t have to go this alone.

Jasmine is such a wonderful therapist and she has been a Integral part of my healing journey. With her help she creates a safe space that allows for me to see things more clearly and get to the root of what’s going on. She is incredibly compassionate and caring, and really knows how to say the right things to motivate me with my goals and to sometimes snap me out of a spiral into clarity. I can not recommend Jasmine as your T enough. I am so lucky to have found her and this platform!!!!!!

Jasmin is friendly, welcoming, and I can tell she’s really listening to me when I talk. I was hesitant to get into counselling for a while, but was not disappointed when I did. A lot of the stuff she brings up is stuff I’m realizing that, as she says it, it’s stuff I do already inherently know, but she’s able to vocalize it in a way that sums it up into one key point. This way, it’s much easier to then start the next step of dealing with it.

I have only been working with Jasmin for a short time and I have to say her counsel and support has been hugely beneficial in guiding me through a rough time. She is deeply understanding and very reassuring. I am very glad I was matched with her! We vibe well and I feel like I can open up to her.
