Jasmine McMurray
Registered Clinical Counsellor
Jasmine has called Vancouver her home for over two decades, and feels a deep connection to the ocean and the mountains surrounding her. Jasmine completed a M.A. in Counselling Psychology from Adler University, and a B.A. from the University of the Fraser Valley. Jasmine is registered with the British Columbia Association of Clinical Counsellors, and is also a Reiki Practitioner who understands the impact our energy fields have on our overall sense of wellbeing.
Jasmine is known for her compassionate and non-judgemental style and she works to create a safe and trusting space for her clients to explore their inner worlds and come to new insights about themselves and their lives. Her philosophy of the change process is holistic and integrative, and she understands the importance of looking at the entire person, and acknowledging and celebrating that each individual is unique and diverse.
Jasmine is a strong believer that our bodies hold many memories and part of her work with clients is to help them to get in touch with the wisdom inside. Another aspect of her work with clients is to explore thoughts, emotions and memories and draw out themes and patterns that may be limiting their experience of joy in life, and transforming these into more life affirming beliefs. Jasmine strongly believes that we are creative beings who, with hope and encouragement, can find our own inner wisdom and strength to make changes in our lives.
Outside of counselling Jasmine enjoys yoga, hiking, painting, and being the mother of a delightful daughter. Jasmine is also an Adjunct Professor with Adler University and she enjoys supervising new and student counsellors.
