Not Currently Accepting New Clients... I am the Clinical Director and Founder at Center for Compassion. Have you experienced trauma, grief, or loss? Perhaps now you are feeling isolated, overwhelmed, and misunderstood? Or, you may be struggling with anxiety and stress, and have difficulty simply making it through each day. You do not have to walk this journey alone. At Center for Compassion, we help our clients survive their most painful moments and find meaning in their lives again. Here your pain will be heard and held. With time and kindness, the world may begin to unfold with glimpses of beauty.

Recognizing feelings of anxiety or depression? Maybe you are even seeing these symptoms as a result of a previous trauma or current unhealthy situation. I help individuals, couples, and families to gain better balance, manage stress, and improve their mental well-being. I work with children, adolescents, and adults.

As a therapist I specialize in trauma and stress. I am a combat veteran and career first responder and I strive to serve those who served, however I accept clients from all walks of life. My clinical orientation is Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, however I am also trained in Dialectic Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness Based Trauma Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy. I see clients in both the Phoenix and Chandler locations.

I am a licensed psychotherpist in AZ and nationally certified. I am trained in various techniques that help with the resolution of trauma, abuse, neglect, addiction, and personality corrections. In addition, I can provide testing for behavioral, emotional, personality, and psychological concerns. As the clinical director, I coordinate and oversee our groups and IOP (intensive outpatient) programs. My team includes Spanish speaking services and the ability to work with those who have other concerns such as anxiey, bipolar, depression, ADHD, and emotional dysregulation as part of individual, group, IOP counseling.

I am passionate about teaching my patients to access their internal resources and unlock their natural ability to self regulate and heal. I believe that you are the expert on you. I help you learn about how your present and past experiences play a role in how you've adapted to the world. We then work together to identify effective ways to cope and engage successfully in your life and relationships. I love to see my patients find their resiliency and capacity to do the things they once thought impossible. (NOTE: I am no longer contracted with insurance, please contact me to find out how you can use me as an out of network provider!)

All people have the capability of finding the strength to manage the catastrophes of life, though some are not consciously aware of it. My job is to meet you where you are emotionally in your life, facilitate self-understanding and help you reach your goals. I place heavy focus on self-care, behavioral management, cognitive restructuring, and self-compassion.

“We repeat what we don’t repair.” - Christine Langley-Obaugh Isn’t this the truth? We go thru life wondering, “why do I keep doing the same thing over and over?” My goal is to help clients to feel better and to change their mindset about their issues that continue to cause challenges. This frustration is common but there has been such a negative societal stigma about seeking help and counseling. My goal as a therapist is to focus on the core issues that cause us to respond in the same ways over and over.

My passion is helping people improve their ability to experience emotions in a healthy way so that they can be the best versions of themselves. We will work together to resolve issues with trauma, anxiety, anger, addiction or feeling stuck in life. You may have tried making changes to feel better or be more positive, but despite your best efforts something is holding you back. You may have instinctual response patterns that are working against you. That's not you, that's survival mode. I will help reduce the struggle by teaching you how to "rewire" your nervous system so that it works with you, allowing you to be the real you.

I help clients who need to feel heard, who need validation, empathy, and empowerment to create a plan to change. Clients who see me want to see a reduction in their symptoms, heal over current and past traumas, the ability to learn alternate perspectives that will help them problem solve effectively, and the ability to take this renewed problem solving and use it to continue to grow and build self awareness.

Struggles are in the “I” of the beholder. Based on this literal perception, we often face our struggles as a problem only “I” can solve and forget that we are communal by nature. This can lead to feelings of emotional isolation where we feel no one truly understands what we are going through. Therapy is the contradiction to these feelings as it focuses on collaboration based on honesty, integrity, and respect. As your therapist, I will meet you where you are and help you toward the goals you desire to achieve.

My ideal client is someone who is seeking counseling for experiencing anxiety/depressions, or for their substance use, or is court mandated because of substance use, or is impacted by substance use or an addiction. The client has a desire to learn or want something to change. I can provide support and guidance in a safe, non-judgemental environment to address their immediate need as they go through a process of discovery and healing.

Jasmine is a licensed therapist and clinical supervisor providing online therapy services. She works with young adults, adults, and couples across a wide range of challenges. Much of Jasmine’s work centers around the role of trauma or distressing experiences in one’s life, and untangling their hold on happiness, connection, fulfillment, and feeling present. Jasmine supports those who have anxiety, depression, attachment wounding leading to unhealthy relationships and stress. She is passionate about bringing a social justice lens to conversations and enjoys working with women, BIPOC individuals, and those in the LGBTQ+ community.

I am passionate about what I do, I love all of my clients and they have access to me even when they don’t have an appointment. I truly just want to help people with life’s struggles.

The story we often tell ourselves can be negative and self destructive. From there we create negative patterns in our behaviors, communication, relationships, and daily lives. We self-sabotage because the story we tell ourselves says, “we aren’t good enough.” I have a strong passion in helping individuals, families, and couples redefine their stories, rediscover their inner strengths, and find inner peace. When we are able to see our self worth and reconnect with our values, we are able to create more meaning in our daily lives and relationships, especially the relationship we have with ourselves.

Have you tried therapy before, but found it draining or less than helpful? Many individuals engage in therapy only to address symptoms, without addressing their root cause. As a therapist, my primary objective is to create a safe place for clients to explore their past and present in order to move into their future with confidence. My authentic nature and strengths-based approach help me build rapport and find buy-in with clients who have difficulty opening up, as well as those who struggle to see themselves making positive changes in their lives.
