    EG. Jasmine got her Masters in Psychological Science and Psychotherapy at Monash University. She is a registered therapist with the Australian Counselling Association (ACA) and Psychotherapy & Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA).
    Her areas of interest include Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) and Intensive Behavioural Intervention (IBI). ABA is an intervention in which the principles of
    learning theory are applied in a systematic and measurable manner to increase, reduce, maintain, and/or generalise target behaviours. In IBI programs, each child’s strengths and weaknesses are assessed and a comprehensive program is created for the child. Jasmine uses ABA and IBA approach and its techniques to help children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and children with Intellectual Disability improve their social skills, self-care skills, communication skills, play skills and ability to manage their own behaviour. These techniques help reduce difficult behaviour
    like inattention, aggression and screaming.
    As an experienced therapist, Jasmine has been working with individuals with varying
    needs from early school age through to adulthood. Jasmine believes in strength-based, family and child inclusive, and recovery-orientated approach to achieve the desired outcome. Her friendly and welcoming manner help her build constructive rapport with her clients to achieve the best result from each session.
