Jasmine Monleon
Whether this is your first time considering therapy or you’ve been on this journey before, I want to welcome you. Reaching out for support takes courage, and I honor that step.
As a 2nd-generation Filipina American, raised in a multigenerational household and speaking conversational Tagalog, I understand the complexity of navigating different cultural expectations and identities. It can feel overwhelming when the values you grew up with don’t always align with the world around you, leaving you caught between who you feel you should be and who you truly are.
Therapy, for me, is a space where those layers of identity, belonging, and self-discovery can be explored with compassion and curiosity. I believe in honoring the parts of ourselves shaped by family and culture while also making space for the versions of ourselves we’re still becoming. Together, we can reflect on what’s no longer serving you, connect with your strengths, and create room for new ways of being that feel authentic and empowering.
In therapy, I take a collaborative and depth-oriented approach. I draw from psychodynamic, narrative, somatic, and parts-work (IFS) perspectives to help clients explore their inner world and uncover the patterns shaping their lives. I also integrate mindfulness and practical tools to support emotional regulation and coping when needed. My style is compassionate, grounded, and culturally sensitive.
I believe that healing happens through connection, curiosity, and self-compassion. Together, we can explore both the challenges and strengths that make up your story, practice tools for navigating life’s stressors, and move toward greater clarity, resilience, and self-empowerment.
