Jasmine is a clinical mental health counselor in the state of Missouri. She has a background in sports psychology, trauma, eating disorders, and racial concerns. Jasmine is passionate about learning as much as she can in this life while enjoying the slow and mundane parts of it. Her faith and spirituality are important to her vision and drive in life. Overall, she'd describe herself as the calm friend, a quirky individual, foodie, and someone who's always down to have a good conversation.

 

As Jasmine says, there are so many rules around food and body. It creates so many limitations more than people realize. Suddenly your clothes are too much, food is too much, the way you look is too much, then you start to isolate or demean yourself. It's just a spiral. Rather than people saying "hey, this isn't true or normal," it gets brushed off and we internalize it. Jasmine struggled with that mentality alone for years, and after she was able to recognize there is so much more to life, it helped set her free. As a counselor, she wants to help others get out of their rut.
