About Jasmin.

some background human stuff.

Discovering ways of living, loving, creating, and working that support our bodies, minds and hearts to flourish.

As someone who is multi-passionate, neurodivergent, sensitive, creative, and a survivor of childhood trauma, I am on a lifelong journey to unlearn and relearn my needs, boundaries, desires and truths…and ultimately what being human means to me.

Along the way I have followed paths well worn in our societal narratives, only to unwind these threads when I realised they were not right for me.

I know the isolation, confusion, exhilaration, courage AND growth in choosing a new path.

And, I’ve experienced the lasting impact that nature, embodied conversations, journalling and creativity have had - in helping me to move from a state of internal disconnection to a place of inner belonging and reconnection to self and self trust.

Which is why I’m passionate about making spaces for you to be supported as you focus on your relationship with yourself and others, and find new layers of self trust, self expression and belonging.

I believe there is so much more to befriending our minds, hearts and bodies than can be captured within a single framework or therapeutic technique, and we need to do better at holistically holding space for trauma and diverse experiences. 

This inner knowing has inspired me to bring together my background in clinical social work and mental health, with my lived experience, the natural ways I interact in the world, and embodied approaches that are informed by neuroscience, somatic knowledge and trauma-informed care; while always being led by the person in front of me.

Through 1:1 sessions and a variety of online resources and supports, I hope to create spaces where you can explore your human experience - your way.

These spaces will weave together evidence-based best practice with intuitive, embodied and personalised approaches to flourishing.

1:1 sessions are inclusive, diversity-friendly, and trauma-informed and I often work from a body-based and bottom-up approach - working with the body (its sensations, movements and messages) and the felt sense of the world around us.

You’re meeting me as I return to the work of holding space after some time away in reflection

After more than 10 years working as a trauma-informed and clinical social worker within community organisations, the private sector and private practice, I had reached a point of career identity confusion.

I no longer felt aligned with many of the systems I was working within…

I was seeing the limitations of our mainstream medical model… and the dissonance within a profession that encouraged the disrupting of systems, and yet was afraid to speak too loudly…

And… I was exhausted from trying to segment the parts of myself that saw these limitations with the parts who yearned deeply to hold space for individual and collective healing. 

By making room to digest and integrate all of these emotions, sensations and insights, I have re-centred, and have a direction forward that lights me up to my core - to make spaces where we can grow our individual and collective sense of wholeness, connectedness and belonging, as creative and empathetic humans. And, to do so in the ways that work for us.
