About Jasmine

"I can be changed by what happens to me, but I refuse to be reduced by it"

Maya Angelou

Meet Your Coach Jasmine

ACC, BS, BHT, CPSW, RYT-200

Hi there! I’m Jasmine, and while I was born and raised in Virginia, I’ve found my home in the sunny, mountainous southwest for the past decade.

When I’m not coaching, 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 a wonderful husband, a lively bunch of animals including dogs, a cat, goats, and chickens, all of whom bring endless smiles and moments of reflection.

My journey to becoming a coach has been profoundly shaped by my past experiences. For years I struggled with finding self-worth through codependent relationships and substance abuse. My need to be needed and my enmeshment in toxic patterns left me disconnected from my true Self, and utterly discouraged by life itself.

Through an ongoing process of healing and self-discovery, I learned to untangle myself from harmful influences, and to develop resilience, emotional intelligence, & a deep appreciation for fulfilling, interdependent relationships. Though marked by painful challenges, these experiences equipped with unique insights and skills that I bring to my professional sphere.

Through my 10+ years of working in behavioral health, I’ve assisted hundreds of people in setting & achieving goals to align with their values. By helping others navigate their own paths to self-discovery and healthy connections, I have the privilege of witnessing their lives bloom in incredible ways.

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

From Drained & Overwhelmed to Balanced & Renewed

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.

From Loss of Identity to Personal Clarity

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

From Unfulfilled to Purpose-Driven

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.

From Fearing Change and/or Abandonment to Embracing Growth

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.

From Emotional Dependence to Inner Strength

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

What's the Difference between Coaching and Therapy?

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.
