About Jasmine
Jasmine Gates is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Licensed Independent Social Worker-Clinical Practice (LISW-CP) in North Carolina with six years of practice. She focuses on anxiety and stress, relationship and intimacy concerns, LGBT issues, and social anxiety and phobia among other areas. Jasmine works with people who want clearer boundaries, better communication, and more confidence in themselves and their relationships.
She uses straightforward, person-centered work that asks clients to identify their goals and values. Sessions often include problem-solving and practical strategies to manage stress and anxiety. Jasmine also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at how past patterns influence current behavior and relationships.
Her approach mixes Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral techniques and Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas to address how people think, feel, and connect with others. Motivational Interviewing is used when people want to move through change but feel unsure where to start. This blend supports both short-term coping and deeper reflection.
Jasmine has lived in many places because of a military family background, which she says helped her learn to relate to people from varied cultures and backgrounds. She works with adults on topics such as grief, trauma and abuse, workplace stress, sexuality, polyamory and alternative sex cultures, and compassion fatigue.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. She notes that subscription-based sessions are used and can be canceled at any time, with fees varying by location.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Jasmine blends Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) in ways that can work well in remote sessions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and helping the person lead the conversation, which helps clarify goals and priorities. CBT looks at thought patterns and behavior and uses practical exercises that can be assigned between sessions to manage anxiety and social fears. EFT attends to emotions and relationship interactions, helping people track how they feel in connection and practice new ways of bonding with others.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. She works collaboratively to choose approaches based on a client’s goals, what feels most useful, and what fits day-to-day life. That means methods can shift as progress is made or as new needs appear.
