About Jazmín
Jazmín Barrera is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 13 years of clinical experience. She is bilingual in English and Spanish and brings a community-rooted perspective to therapy. Jazmín draws on her background growing up in San Francisco's Mission District and her Salvadoran and Nicaraguan heritage to inform her work.
She supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem struggles. She also works with those dealing with trauma and abuse, addiction, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and parenting challenges. Jazmín often helps people navigate immigration-related stress and multicultural issues.
Her approach mixes Client-Centered therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, existential ideas, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. She focuses on strengths and practical steps clients can try between sessions. Jazmín pays attention to a person’s cultural background and life story when planning therapy.
She has experience providing both brief and longer-term therapy and has worked with people who needed crisis stabilization at times. Much of her past work involved Spanish-speaking immigrants and communities affected by intergenerational trauma and community violence. That experience informs how she talks about resilience and recovery.
Jazmín aims to help clients become active agents of change in their own lives. She encourages clear goals, honest conversation, and small, realistic steps toward better day-to-day functioning.
