A little about me
Hi, I’m Jasmin (she/her), & I’m so glad you’ve found your way here.
As a Mental Health Social Worker, I bring a holistic and inclusive approach to our work together, considering your individual needs as well as the bigger picture of your life - the relationships, environment, and social systems that can impact our mental health. I’m here to offer support that’s grounded in deep respect for your unique experiences and the many factors that shape them.
When I’m not in sessions, you can often find me writing, exploring nature trails, or enjoying time with chosen family. I believe that connecting with nature and creativity helps us find balance and joy, and I love bringing these elements into my work whenever it feels supportive.
Since 2010, I have been providing counselling to adults navigating a range of challenges including stress, imposter syndrome, identity and shifting identities, grief and loss, suicide bereavement, trauma, relationship dynamics, work-life balance, personal development, and life transitions. I also have experience supporting Emergency Service personnel and their families.
Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, grief, relationship struggles, or feeling stuck, I’m here to help.
My values
I am deeply committed to providing a neuroaffirming and trauma-informed space.
This means I honour and respect the diverse ways our brains work, and I understand the impact of trauma on the body and mind. I welcome people of all backgrounds, experiences, bodies and identities, with an open heart and a deep respect for your lived experience.
Whether you’re here because of a specific issue or feel that it’s time to connect more deeply with yourself, I’m here to listen and support you.
My hope is that our work together will help you feel seen, heard, and equipped to live your most nourishing and thriving life.
