Jasmine Ricks, LMFT — Therapist in Virginia

Hi there, I'm Jasmine!

I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist working with individuals in Virginia and Texas via telehealth. I work with adults specializing in relationships, self-worth, anxiety, stress, and transitions, utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Family Systems to support clients.

My focus

Some of the areas I help with include managing stress, coping with life transitions, communication, boundaries, acceptance, self-worth, self-love, self-care, people pleasing, codependency, impostor syndrome, trauma, relationship challenges, work-life stress, anxiety & depression.

My approach

My approach to therapy is relaxed and patient, tailored to my client's comfort level and needs. I implement evidence-based methods such as CBT, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Narrative Therapy.

My communication style

It is important to me to create a space that is non-judgmental, welcoming, and personable as you navigate challenges impacting your mental health & well-being.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist to assist individuals in accessing a more meaningful and fulfilling life. However, they need additional support to overcome challenges that have or currently impact them and hinder them from becoming their highest version of self.

My goals for you

I utilize a collaborative approach, working together to identify your own needs and goals for therapy. You are the expert on your own experiences; my job is to work as a team with you to assist you with reaching your goals.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll talk about your current experiences while I ask questions to better understand you and what may be contributing. The first session is about building connection, discussing your hopes for therapy, and establishing direction for our work together.
