ABOUT JASMIN
I am Jasmin.
I am a clinical psychologist with almost 20 years of experience in mental health and holistic psychological and process work.
I accompany people in psychological, somatic and energetic processes who sense that their life no longer feels true — and who are ready to reconnect with themselves, their body and their inner orientation.
My work brings together psychological depth, body-based awareness and shamanic practices in a grounded, experiential way.
Not as separate methods, but as one integrated approach that supports real inner change — lived, not just understood.
I work with people who are sensitive and reflective, often carrying responsibility and strength on the outside, while feeling disconnected or uncertain on the inside.
Those who don’t want quick fixes or self-optimisation, but a deeper, more honest way of living.
I offer psychological, somatic and energetic process accompaniment online, in Lisbon (Graça), Ericeira (Ribamar) and Berlin.
My professional background
With nearly two decades in the mental health field, my work is informed by:
A degree in Clinical Psychology (Dipl.-Psych.)
A 3 year offline training in Somatic Experiencing® Trauma Therapy
A 10 year training in Gestalt Therapy and Body Work Gestalt Therapy, including work as a teacher and trainer at the Gestalt Institute IGG Berlin
Authorship of the book Connect Me (Penguin Random House)
Ongoing studies and practice in shamanic and energetic healing since 2019
Various certifications in mindfulness, resilience, systemic and business coaching
Before entering full-time therapeutic & coaching work, I also spent some years working in a global corporate environment, an experience that allows me to deeply understand pressure, performance demands and the emotional cost of high-responsibility roles.
The person behind the work
I bring my full self into this work — as a mother of two boys and two dogs, someone who has lived through anxiety, panic attacks, complex trauma and profound life transitions, and as a woman who rebuilt her life and business in a new country.
Living in Portugal has shaped my way of working as much as my German roots.
The clarity and directness of Berlin, the slower rhythm of Portuguese life, and the raw presence of the Atlantic all inform how I meet people: grounded, honest and human.
My experience has taught me that healing is not about perfection. It is about authenticity, courage and allowing yourself to be supported while life unfolds.
