My name is Jasmine Cepeda, LCSW. I am a licensed psychotherapist with over a decade of experience supporting individuals through emotional pain, life transitions, and the deep work of healing and self-discovery.

 

At the heart of my practice is a simple belief: all human beings long to feel seen, heard, understood, and accepted. As a therapist, I offer a warm, safe, and patient space where this experience is possible. 

 

Whether you're carrying unresolved wounds, facing inner conflict, or feeling overwhelmed by your relationships or responsibilities, I’m here to help you make sense of your experience. Together, we’ll work to strengthen emotional regulation, deepen self-reflection, and help you feel more grounded, empowered, and connected to yourself.

​

My therapeutic approach is eclectic and highly personalized. I tailor my services to each person's unique needs and goals, integrating a combination of the following modalities:

1. Emotion-Focused & Psychodynamic Therapy: to explore your emotional world and relational patterns

2. Mindfulness-Based & Somatic Therapy: to help you stay grounded and present in your body

3. Compassion-Focused Therapy: to reduce inner criticism (or shame) and nurture self-acceptance.

Together, we’ll process a range of complex emotions like sadness, grief, anxiety, shame, guilt, fear, and anger, while nurturing qualities like trust, hope, forgiveness, and a sense of “enoughness.” You can explore more about these modalities in the sections below.

​

In addition, my work is trauma-informed, which means your past experiences are honored with care, curiosity, and respect. With that in mind, establishing a foundation of trust and safety becomes central to our work together. At the same time, although we hold space for your history, our focus stays rooted in the present and courageously hopeful for the future, even if it's uncertain.

 

While I support clients with a variety of life challenges, my specializations include:

1. Regulating Difficult or Overwhelming Emotions

2.  

   Building Self-Esteem Through Executive Functioning Support​​​​

You can explore more about these specializations in the sections below.

​

Lastly, as a native New Yorker and first-generation Latina, I bring a culturally responsive and anti-oppressive lens to therapy. My background in social work grounds me in both emotional attunement and a broader understanding of systems, social contexts, and lived experiences.

 

Outside of therapy, I find joy and balance through yoga and meditation, practices that gently inform and enrich my clinical work.​​

If you're curious about working together, I warmly invite you to reach out and make an appointment.

​

I provide telehealth therapy to clients in New York, New Jersey, and Colorado, using the secure, HIPAA-compliant platform Doxy. This allows us to meet consistently and conveniently, without compromising the quality, connection, or depth of care.
