Jasmine Hayes, LPC

Jasmine Hayes is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in New Jersey with seven years of clinical experience. She trained at St. John's University and has worked with individuals, couples, families, and groups on a broad range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, identity and existential questions, and trauma-related issues. Jasmine emphasizes discovering each client’s values and translating those values into everyday behaviors so that life and personality align more closely with what matters most.

Her style is client-centered and nondirective, yet intentionally active in guiding clients toward practical goals. She respects clients’ agendas while making sure sessions conclude with tangible tools and clear next steps to apply outside therapy. When progress is complicated or unclear, she persists in exploring solutions and resumes work where it last left off.

Jasmine integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients identify values and live them out, along with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shape healthier thoughts and behaviors. This combined approach supports clients in building a sustainable lifestyle that encourages mental wellbeing. She welcomes those seeking collaborative, values-driven counseling and aims to provide focused strategies that fit each person’s life and goals.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Growth and Connection

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their personal values and take committed steps toward them. It emphasizes accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on meaningful action, which can be useful for stress, anxiety, and life-direction concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. By learning practical strategies to reframe thinking and build healthier habits, clients often find relief from depression, anxiety, and mood-related challenges.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns formed in close relationships and how they affect current relationships and emotional responses. It can be especially helpful for attachment issues, codependency, and communication problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jasmine works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts techniques as progress unfolds.

Online sessions offer flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access licensed professionals from home or other convenient locations.
