My name is Jasmine Cepeda, LCSW. I am a psychotherapist licensed in
New York & Colorado, based in Brooklyn, NYC.

I believe all human beings want to be seen, understood, and accepted. As a therapist, I offer a warm, safe, and patient space for such an experience. We all need someone to empower, validate, and actively listen to us in an empathic way, which is what I strive to do.

​

With over a decade of clinical experience, my therapeutic approach is deeply rooted in helping individuals foster their self-reflection, emotional expression, clarity, balance, and self-compassion. I guide clients through life transitions and help them process a diverse range of emotions, thoughts, experiences, and complex relationships that may cause distress. For instance, I assist clients in processing feelings such as worry, shame, helplessness, fear, grief, disappointment, and sadness, while also facilitating acceptance, peace, trust, hope, forgiveness, accountability,
and a sense of enoughness.

 

Emphasizing a holistic and collaborative approach, I offer clients the flexibility to address their distress from multiple angles and at their own pace. With an eclectic therapeutic approach, I tailor my services to each person's unique needs, employing three main modalities: Emotion Focused Therapy, Compassion-Focused Therapy, & Mindfulness-based/Somatic-based therapies. Please visit the Frequently Asked Questions section for additional details about these modalities. My approach is centered around helping clients develop self-esteem, authenticity, and emotional regulation skills through building their own compassionate presence and mindful awareness. We focus on the present, while integrating the past and being courageously hopeful for the future,
even if uncertain.

​

Utilizing the virtual therapy platform Doxy, I provide accessible and convenient care without compromising quality. 

​

Lastly, as a native New Yorker and first-generation Latina, with a background in social work, I approach therapy through an anti-oppressive lens.

 

Outside of therapy, my interest include yoga, meditating, and cooking!
