Meet Your Coach Jasmine

ACC, BS, BHT, CPSW, CYT

Hi there! I’m Jasmine, and I’m grateful to call the sunny, mountainous southwest my home.

When I’m not coaching or creating, you can find me immersed in a good book (or several), flowing on my yoga mat, hiking in the wilderness, or cooking up something spicy.
My life is joyfully shared with my spouse and our lively bunch of animals including dogs, a cat, a turtle, goats, and chickens on an ever- evolving, organic homestead.

The journey into my practice has been profoundly shaped by past experiences – years of identity loss through codependent relationships and substance abuse. 
Though marked by painful challenges, these experiences equipped me with resilience, emotional intelligence & the insights and skills that I bring to my professional sphere.
During the last 10+ years of working in mental & behavioral health, I’ve assisted hundreds of people in setting & achieving goals to create lifestyles aligned with their core values. 

Are you ready? 

If I Could Do It, You Can Go...

Restore the energy you’ve lost in those taxing relationship patterns. While healthy relationships require work and effort, they shouldn’t leave you feeling depleted.

Rebuild the relationship with YOU through acts of Self-care & love. Reconnect with your personal values and incorporate them in your day-to-day

Life’s too short to stagnate in situations and relationships that hold you back. Set your sights on what really inspires and delights you. I’ll help you get there.

There’s no painless shortcuts to transformation and healing, but you can learn to embrace the discomfort that sparks growth. 
Not everyone is going to like the improvements you make, and that’s okay. You can learn to release the attachments that interfere with your wellbeing. 

Rather than allowing your emotional state to be dependent on your partner, we will work on incorporating emotional intelligence skills that are independently yours.

Both coaching and therapy have myriad complementary benefits for those looking to bring positive change to their lifestyle, mental health, and overall well-being. That being said, recognizing and respecting the unique roles of coaching and therapy is essential.
Rather than delving deeply into the past, coaching focuses on present and future goal-setting to improve the interplay between emotions, thoughts, behaviors, and relationships. Coaching helps with skill-building, perspective change, and integrating desirable habits.
Therapy assists with these as well, and additionally, often includes understanding and resolving past traumas, treating & diagnosing mental illness, etc.
While coaching can also be of tremendous benefit to those experiencing mental illness or mild -to moderate disruptions in cognition/daily functioning, it is not a substitute for therapy.
