About

Human Embraced was born out of the desire to support people to feel seen, heard and held - in all their humanness.

Hi, I’m Jasmine, the creator of Human Embraced.

At the heart of my work is a desire to support people to feel more joy, ease, and vitality in their everyday lives. I care deeply about connecting with someone’s essence and supporting this part of them to flourish. I work with the whole human - their body, mind, and energy - and all parts of you are welcome with me. I encourage you to show up as you are, because to me, your life - and how it actually feels to live it - matters.

If we were in a room together, you’d likely experience me as warm, steady, and authentic, with big energy and a strong sense of presence. I’m gentle and supportive, and I’m also fierce, playful, and direct. Humour is a big part of how I relate to people, and I believe self-development and therapy can be both hard and fun.

While you’d likely experience me this way now - as someone who is vibrant, gentle, and grounded - this hasn’t always been the case.

Throughout my life, I have often felt overwhelmed, exhausted, confused, tense, hopeless, disconnected, defensive, and scared. I’ve felt estranged from myself and spent a lot of time hating myself and my body, living a life that felt awful, even when it looked okay from the outside.

Because of this, I spent years learning how to live differently. Through study, retreats, and many approaches to healing and support, I’ve developed an understanding of what supports meaningful change - and I’m now deeply passionate about supporting others.

Today, my work is shaped by formal training alongside lived experience. I draw on my training in body-based psychotherapy, psychology, communication, and human services to support people at many different stages of their lives and journeys.

“Compassion is not a relationship between the healer and the wounded. It’s a relationship between equals. Only when we know our own darkness well, can we be present with the darkness of others.”
