Jasmine Simmons

Jasmine Simmons is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina. She helps people who are facing anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction concerns, and the stresses of big life changes. Jasmine focuses on practical steps people can use right away to feel a little steadier. She draws on approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice what matters to them and take small, manageable actions. Jasmine also uses client-centered and solution-focused techniques to keep sessions grounded in each person's priorities. Motivational Interviewing informs her work with people with substance use or motivational challenges. Jasmine has six years of clinical experience working with young adults, women, and veterans, and she understands pressures related to work, parenting transitions, and military life. She helps people address low self-esteem, social anxiety, panic, and compassion fatigue. She also supports those recovering from trauma and postpartum mood concerns. In sessions she helps clients name stressful patterns and try new ways of responding. Conversations focus on concrete goals like improving communication, reducing panic symptoms, or building self-love. Jasmine uses a strengths-based perspective and works to make changes feel achievable. To begin, she asks about current struggles and what the client hopes will be different. From there she and the client decide what tools to try and how to measure progress. This straightforward approach aims to help people manage life changes with clearer coping skills and steadier momentum.

How these approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their values and take small, meaningful steps even when feelings are difficult. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like panic or low mood. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own goals and pace, offering a respectful, nonjudgmental space to talk things through.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Jasmine will explore your goals and preferences and recommend techniques to try first. Together you can decide whether to focus on values-based actions, practical thinking tools, motivation for change, or short-term solution work based on what feels most useful.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time, which can make it easier to keep regular appointments.
