Jasmine Hayes , LPC

Jasmine Hayes is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in New Jersey with seven years of clinical experience. She earned her counseling degree from St. John's University and has worked with individuals, couples, families, and groups across a range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, identity questions, and existential struggles.

Her work begins with identifying each person's needs and core values, then finding practical ways to bring those values into everyday life through consistent behaviors. Jasmine helps clients uncover the obstacles that interfere with goals and wellbeing and supports them in developing concrete strategies to move forward. Her approach is client-centered and nondirective while remaining actively engaged in guiding sessions toward meaningful outcomes. She respects when clients lead the conversation yet ensures each meeting ends with tools and clear takeaways to apply outside of therapy.

Jasmine integrates acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to clarify values and promote value-driven living together with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to strengthen adaptive thinking and behavior patterns. By combining these approaches she aims to create sustainable changes that contribute to overall mental wellbeing. She looks forward to supporting clients in discovering solutions and gaining insight.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Therapy

Jasmine Hayes draws from acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to guide her online work. ACT focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed steps toward them, helping clients who feel stuck around purpose, identity, or life direction. CBT concentrates on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking patterns and habits, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress while building practical coping skills.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process. Jasmine works with each person to explore which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time so therapy stays relevant and effective. That collaboration helps ensure interventions align with what the client hopes to achieve.

Online sessions - whether by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - offer flexibility for busy schedules and those who cannot attend in person. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access regular support, and use tools and techniques between sessions. Licensed professionals and therapists can provide meaningful, structured treatment through these modalities while tailoring the format to each person's life and goals.
