Getting to know Jasmin Portaz
Jasmin believes we all have the power, the right, and the ability to be the narrators of our own stories. She knows that true growth can transpire when we understand that one’s story is not done being written and actively choose to take control of its direction.
As a lifelong poet, Jasmin has always understood the power of identifying, expressing, and releasing one’s emotions. Fascinated by the intersection of art and healing, she earned a Bachelor’s degree from the University of California, Los Angeles, and a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Adler University, where she also completed training in Art Therapy. She utilizes a variety of tools in her sessions, including writing, different mediums of art, somatic experiencing, and talk therapies.
Working from a trauma-informed, inclusive framework, Jasmin supports clients across the lifespan, including those who identify as LGBTQ+, those exploring identity, and individuals from diverse backgrounds. Her specialties include trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief, gender identity, and family dynamics. Jasmin also believes in the power of group therapy and uses her unique skills as a former poetry teacher to lead impactful workshops, where participants expand their understanding and transform their narratives through a supportive and nurturing environment of shared healing.

She believes that each individual has the ability to shape and reclaim their own story, and she approaches therapy as a space for self-discovery, healing, and renewal. With warmth and authenticity, Jasmin helps clients explore emotions, release what no longer serves them, and reconnect with their inner voice. Her use of art, writing, and somatic practices offers multiple pathways for expression and reflection, making therapy a dynamic and engaging process. Rooted in trauma-informed and inclusive care, Jasmin meets each person where they are, honoring their unique history and cultural context while helping them move toward growth, clarity, and self-compassion.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Jasmin begins by creating a safe, collaborative space where clients can explore their stories at their own pace. She takes time to understand each person’s goals and the emotions or experiences that bring them to therapy, helping to identify patterns that may be limiting their growth. Integrating talk therapy with expressive modalities such as writing, art-making, and somatic awareness, Jasmin tailors her approach to fit each client’s needs and comfort level. Her process encourages curiosity, creativity, and emotional release—transforming pain into insight and self-understanding. Whether in individual sessions or group workshops, Jasmin guides clients in reauthoring their narratives, fostering resilience, and cultivating a sense of empowerment and healing that extends beyond the therapy space.
