About Jasmine Gates

Jasmine Gates works with people navigating life transitions and members of the LGBTQ+ community, bringing particular attention to couples across diverse relationship structures, including polyamorous partnerships. She cultivates a therapeutic space where individuals can speak freely about their experiences, feel validated in their identity, and be supported as they articulate boundaries and pursue goals. Her style blends strength-based, person-centered methods with psychodynamic insight and a touch of humor to help clients build confidence and clearer communication in relationships, career, and personal life.

Jasmine is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Licensed Independent Social Worker - Clinical Practice (LISW-CP), and she has six years of clinical experience. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Eastern Michigan University in 2010 and completed a Master of Social Work at Johnson C. Smith University in 2017. Her background in a military family and experience living in multiple regions of the United States contribute to a culturally aware approach when working with clients from varied backgrounds.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Jasmine draws from several well-established approaches to tailor care to each person's needs. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening with empathy and supporting clients as the experts on their own lives - it is often used to strengthen self-esteem, identity, and decision-making. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and stress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on understanding and reshaping emotional responses, which can be especially helpful for couples and intimacy-related concerns.

Finding the right combination of techniques is part of the therapeutic process. Jasmine works collaboratively with clients to determine which approaches best match their goals, preferences, and current challenges, adjusting methods as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility for different schedules and needs, enabling sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit therapy into a busy life, and access licensed professionals from different locations while prioritizing convenience and consistent support.
