About Jasmine

Jasmine Hayes is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in New Jersey. She brings seven years of clinical experience and a focus on family and parenting issues alongside a broad range of emotional and relational concerns. She aims to help people who are feeling stuck by breaking problems into clear, manageable steps.

Her work begins with understanding each person’s values and daily life. She uses that information to set practical goals anyone can try at home.

Background and approach

Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. In the room, she blends acceptance and commitment ideas with cognitive-behavioral tools. That means clients look at what matters most to them while also learning specific ways to change unhelpful thoughts and habits.

She also draws on attachment principles to address relationship patterns. Her style is client-centered but active - she follows what matters to the client while offering clear guidance and take-home tools. Meetings usually end with concrete steps so people can practice between sessions.

Jasmine has worked with mood disorders, trauma and abuse, grief, and relationship struggles among other concerns. She also supports people dealing with life changes, career questions, and issues like codependency or communication problems. Her aim is to help clients find steady ways to live according to their values.

To begin, she helps identify obstacles and builds a plan that fits each person’s priorities and daily routine. The focus is on practical progress, not jargon, so families and individuals can move forward more confidently.

Therapeutic approaches that translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small, committed steps toward those values. It is useful for stress, life changes, and finding direction when things feel confusing.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches specific skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and mood-related concerns.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns affect current bonds and communication. It can help when family dynamics or relationship patterns keep repeating and causing pain.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jasmine will collaborate with each client to choose techniques that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. That might mean trying a mix of approaches and adjusting as progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when video isn’t possible, and live chat or text-based messaging can support shorter check-ins or between-session coaching. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules and daily life.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
