Hi, I'm Yasmeen and I know starting therapy can feel like a big, overwhelming step. Maybe you've been putting it off, unsure if it'll actually help or worried about what it'll feel like to open up to someone new. I get it. And I want you to know: this is a space where you can show up exactly as you are, no performance required.

I'm a therapist with a Master's degree from Nicholls State University, and I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, anger, grief, stress, and relationship or family challenges. Whatever brought you here, you don't have to figure it out alone anymore.

My style is warm, validating, and compassionate, while also being honest and intentional. I believe therapy should feel supportive but also purposeful.

Jeremiah Henderson

Therapist

Virtual • Louisiana


Hello, my name is Jeremiah Henderson. I am a licensed clinical social worker practicing in the state of Texas. I have experience working with depression, grief, anxiety, low self-esteem, low motivation, trauma, and anger. It is important to realize that we are all prone to experience life stressors and negative emotions that can knock us down; however, I want us to work to develop skills and coping mechanisms to assist in helping to pull ourselves back to a point of stability. Getting to a place of happiness and stability is not something we can stumble on by accident, it will take deliberate work to get there and even harder work to maintain it. Let me help you get to the finish line.
