About Jasmine
LCSW and LISW-CP in North Carolina, Jasmine Gates has six years of experience supporting adults through relationship strain, identity questions, grief, trauma, workplace stress, and parenting-related pressures. She lists areas such as stress, anxiety, LGBT concerns, intimacy and relationship difficulties, family problems, and career challenges. Jasmine also notes work around grief, anger, self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and sexual diversity topics including BDSM and kink culture.
Jasmine uses person-centered approaches that invite people to speak about their experience and goals. She blends client-centered work with elements of psychodynamic thinking, CBT, emotionally-focused techniques, and motivational interviewing. Sessions aim to clarify values, strengthen communication, and set concrete steps toward goals.
She writes that growing up in a military family exposed her to many cultures and shaped her perspective. That background informs how she notices cultural context when talking about identity and relationship patterns. Her practice emphasizes practical talk and planning, with room for humor and direct feedback.
People reach out for help with relationship and intimacy issues, non-monogamous arrangements, blended family concerns, and gender dysphoria related questions. She also lists veteran and armed forces issues, multicultural concerns, seasonal mood changes, self-harm, and sexuality among focus areas.
Outside of work she enjoys live music, brunch, open mics, and watching Food Network and television. The emphasis in sessions is on helping adults find clearer boundaries, better communication, and a steadier sense of self.
How sessions work
How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel heard and can decide what matters most. It helps when someone needs clarity about values, boundaries, or choices in relationships.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks concerns into thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses simple exercises to test unhelpful thinking and practice different responses, which can help with anxiety, mood, and workplace stress.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on attachment and emotion in close relationships. It helps people name feelings, understand patterns in interactions, and try new ways of communicating with partners or significant others.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, habits, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as work proceeds.
Session logistics should fit into everyday life. The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can be easier to schedule around work or family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals can mix listening, skills practice, and problem-solving across sessions to keep progress practical and focused.
