THERAPiST IN North Carolina and South Carolina
Dr. Jasmine Garrison PhD, LCMHC, QS, CCTP
You're here because on the outside you appear okay but deep down you’re not.
You’re constantly putting on a brave face despite secretly suffering. The façade is getting harder and harder to maintain every day.
It's okay to admit that things aren't always as they seem. I know that sometimes the biggest battles are fought on the inside. That's why I’m here to help you find the strength and support you need to overcome them.
If you’re looking for a therapist who encourages you to take off the mask and show up as your authentic self, you’ve come to the right place. I believe that therapy should be a place where you feel seen, heard, and understood. You don't have to do this alone. It’s time to get real about your struggles. I’m here to listen.
At the core of my approach to therapy is a belief that every person has the capacity to heal and grow.
Life's ups and downs can often lead us to feel that we aren't in the driver's seat. I'm here to tell you that taking steps to find a therapist to begin your healing journey is a step in the right direction toward getting back on course. I specialize in assisting highly motivated and high-achieving professional women and men aged 21 and older in freeing themselves of the hold that anxiety, trauma, or other stressors have on their lives and feel empowered to take control of their futures.
Through a combination of evidence-based practices and a compassionate, non-judgmental approach, I work with clients to develop the tools and skills they need to navigate life's challenges, increase self-compassion and self-preservation, and remember that they are more than their circumstances. Clients come to me to get to the root of their challenges and work toward lasting change and self-discovery. Together, we will identify and work on goals that align with where you are headed in life or where you desire to be.
Therapy is like putting a mirror up to your face and challenging yourself through introspection, reflection, and realization. If you are ready for this journey, I am here to guide you and walk alongside you on this path. Feel free to contact me to begin your self-discovery journey today! I look forward to hearing from you.
HEre’s what I believe about therapy:
Healing is a journey, not a destination.
Healing is about more than just managing symptoms or coping with difficult emotions. It's about addressing the underlying issues that contribute to your pain and developing the skills and resources you need to thrive. It's a process of growth and transformation that requires time, patience, and effort.
Self-preservation is a form of self-love.
Release yourself of the guilt that comes with focusing on you. Prioritizing your mental health is not selfish or indulgent - it's a necessary part of wellness.
You deserve to feel heard and seen.
Having a safe space to process what you are experiencing in your daily life is important. You can’t empty a cup, so choosing therapy is self-care, an investment in yourself, and a means of re-charging.
Get the support that’s right for you.
