How do you work with clients with depression?

I’m a board‑certified psychiatric nurse practitioner who helps individuals navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions through a warm, collaborative, and whole‑person approach. I blend evidence‑based treatment with genuine therapeutic connection, integrating medication management with supportive psychotherapy to create care that feels both grounded and human. My goal is to help you understand your mind, build resilience, and move toward a life that feels more stable, empowered, and aligned with who you want to be. If you’re looking for care that honors your story and your strengths, I’m here to support you.

As a therapist, I aim to provide a safe and supportive environment to look at the inner workings of yourself and also process the various things that impact your life on an individual and structural level. I’ve worked across levels of care, including IOP and inpatient hospital settings, supporting teens and adults of various backgrounds navigating mental health challenges, trauma, and dual diagnoses. My background in trauma-informed case management with immigrants and refugees and research on women of color at predominantly White institutions shapes my systems-aware, culturally responsive approach in addition to my lived experience.

I have my LCSW and have been working as a social worker for 10 years. I focus on women and adolescents who have imposter syndrome or wearing masks to be who others want them to be.

I am working on my dissertation in a doctoral program in clinical psychology. At our practice, we understand that every child is unique, facing their own challenges and strengths. My approach, under supervision, combines evidence-based techniques with a deep understanding of individual needs, ensuring that each intervention is tailored to promote effective learning and emotional health. Services include: 1. **Educational Therapy**: I design customized learning plans to help children with learning disabilities overcome obstacles and enhance their academic engagement. 2. **Behavioral Support**: Through targeted interventions, I assist students in developing healthier behavior patterns and coping skills, fostering a positive environment for growth. 3. **Family Collaboration**: I believe in the power of a supportive network. I work closely with families, providing guidance and resources to navigate educational placements and special education services. 4. **Community Outreach**: My commitment extends beyond individual therapy. I lead workshops and training sessions to raise awareness and provide support for students with special needs within the community. Together, we can create a nurturing atmosphere where children thrive, empowering them to reach their full potential. If you’re ready to take the next step, I invite you to reach out and schedule a consultation. Let’s work together to build a brighter future.

Hello, my name is Jasmin, I am a graduate student from Houston Christian University pursuing my master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I am passionate about creating a supportive, encouraging, and nonjudgmental environment for clients. I strive to help individuals who are looking to conquer and manage anxiety, depression, and sports performance anxiety, and I strive to help clients build confidence, develop healthy coping skills, and navigate life’s challenges with resilience. My counseling approach is grounded in Solution-Focused Brief Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I believe in helping clients recognize their strengths, identify practical solutions, and challenge negative thought patterns that may be impacting their emotional well-being or performance. My goal is to collaborate with clients in a way that empowers them to make meaningful progress toward their personal, academic, athletic, and emotional goals. As a former athlete and coach, I understand the pressures that can come with performance expectations, stress, and balancing responsibilities. I am committed to helping clients feel heard, supported, and motivated throughout their counseling journey.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Registered Play Therapist, and Certified LEGO Serious Play Facilitator. I offer a specialized playroom designed to support engaging, developmentally appropriate work with children, teens, and families. I help clients navigate emotional and behavioral regulation challenges, anxiety, low self-esteem, trauma, parenting stress, and neurodevelopmental differences, including ADHD, Autism, and learning differences. I also support individuals and couples working through relationship and attachment concerns, as well as life transitions across all stages of development. My work extends to women seeking greater emotional balance and clarity, couples looking to strengthen communication and connection, and families striving for more harmony and cohesion. I specialize in working with children, teens, young adults, adults, couples, and families, with focused support in women’s wellness, divorce transitions, and families of individuals with special needs, all through an integrated, brain-based approach to care.

My most important commitment is that you feel truly affirmed, empowered, and heard. I listen with deep curiosity and humility, always honoring your unique story and how your lived experiences have shaped your values, hopes, and emotional needs. Whether you’re grappling with anxiety, self-doubt, grief, people-pleasing, or power struggles in your relationships, I create a nonjudgmental space to explore complex feelings like guilt, insecurity, jealousy, regret, resentment, and more. I also offer a deep understanding of cultural pressures, marginalization, and power dynamics. For over 15 years, I've worked alongside diverse communities in public health and education––from LGBTQIA+ centers, sexual health programs, and reproductive justice organizations, to disability centers, trauma-informed crisis lines, and under-resourced schools. Across nearly two decades, I have supported numerous people of color and immigrants––many of them queer and/or trans––as they negotiated multiple perspectives on belonging, cultural authenticity, discrimination, failure/success, faith, family, sexuality, and social class. Witnessing the tenacity, self-awareness, compassion, and character of cycle-breakers was one of a few major motivators for entering the profession. I earned an M.Phil.Ed. in Professional Counseling from the University of Pennsylvania's Graduate School of Education and an Ed.M. in Human Development & Psychology at Harvard's Graduate School of Education.

Not interested in weekly sessions? I offer bespoke multi-hour intensives for clients looking for deep work which can lead to transformation. With uninterrupted time, you can dive deep into issues which have been holding you back. There is space to explore, release and move forward - without rushing or stopping early. Common topics women focus on: processing sexual assaults, war experiences, medical trauma, religious trauma, anger, guilt, and phobias. Modalities used: somatic tapping, brainspotting, flash, deep brain reorienting, IFS/Parts work, Schema work. Depending on client interests, in person sessions in Mobile, Alabama may also include using art supplies, exploring symbolism with oracle or tarot cards, incorporating movement with yoga, or going outside to walk in a park or at nearby beaches at the Gulf of Mexico. Many people fly in for therapy and combine it with a vacation. Intensives are a minimum of 3 hours to a maximum of 7 hours in one or more days. Many people will schedule a 4 hour morning session followed by an afternoon at the beach and repeat that for two or three days. Intensives can be during the weekday or on weekend. We will have one meeting before the intensive to clearly define your goals for the intensive. After the intensive, there will be a short follow up meeting to discuss the results of the intensive. All intensives are private pay. No superbill or diagnosis will be provided. A non-refundable deposit is required.
