Jazmin Lara, MS

Therapeutic Style:

My therapeutic style is rooted in a multicultural framework, emphasizing the interplay between individuals and the larger systems they are a part of. I strive to create a welcoming environment where clients can explore their multifaceted identities and understand how these identities interact with the world around them. I pull a lot from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT) in my practice, focusing on creating meaningful learning experiences within the therapy room.

Professional Interests:

  • Anxiety/OCD
  • Depression
  • Relationship concerns
  • BIPOC mental health
  • Latine mental health
  • First-gen and undocumented students

Educational Background:

I earned my bachelor’s degree in psychology from DePaul University in Chicago, IL. I then began my graduate studies at Utah State University where I earned my master’s in psychology. I am currently a Doctoral Candidate at Utah State University and anticipate completing my PhD in Combined Clinical/Counseling Psychology in 2025.

Personal Interests:

I love sipping coffee or tea while diving into a good book. I also cherish spending time with my family, whether we’re unwinding at home or exploring new activities together.

My Pronouns:

She/Her/Ella
