Dr. Jasmine Smith, LCSW
As a survivor of intimate partner violence, I understand the importance of healing in a space that is empowering and centers your voice. My ultimate goal is to create a brave space for you to be your authentic self and reclaim your power.
Reclaiming your power starts during our first interaction as I encourage and guide you to own the therapeutic space, bringing and honoring all of you. While we might not be able to change the stressors that may activate trauma, anxiety, depression, and undesirable behaviors, we can change how you respond to them.
My clinical experience includes sharing space with youth, adults, couples, and families who live with symptoms of depression, anxiety, trauma, and eating patterns. Additionally, I am a certified advocate for individuals in California who have and are experiencing relational and sexual violence and crime. I am trained in Brainspotting and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing and use an eclectic approach based on the need of the individual, couple, or family from a decolonized perspective.
I see you, hear you, and I’m here for YOU!
