Introduction
I am a French psychotherapist trained in Seattle in Counseling Psychology. My office is in Pioneer Square. My practice is grounded in psychoanalysis. I enjoy seeing growth and change in individuals, couples, and families. I will work with you to help you gain more insight, alleviate pain, and develop a more harmonious relationship between you, others, and the world. I see individuals, couples, and families and assist them in managing issues related to relationships, parenting, communication, intimacy, trust, and conflict resolution. I also see people suffering from depression, anxiety, trauma, and stress related issues. I can offer you a safe, respectful, and confidential environment. I work on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and weekends. Here are the directions to my Office: The office is located in the New England Building at 219 1st Avenue South. Seattle, WA 98104 - in Pioneer Square on 1st Avenue South next to Main Street between The Berliner restaurant and the Post Office. Please go to the top floor taking the stairs or the elevator at the end on the left and go to the top floor Suite 405. Please take a seat in the atrium or in the waiting room inside the suite. A fee of $ 80 per couple or family session / $80 for individual sessions - is payable by check or cash at each session. I will send you a disclosure agreement and an intake form to fill out for our first session. I am considered Out of Network. Please check with your insurance provider to see if you are eligible for reimbursement and at what rate. You will also want to check to see if you have to meet a deductible before your provider will reimburse. Finally, it is important to find out if couples therapy or family therapy is covered. I am happy to provide you with a monthly invoice with my Tax ID, UBI and license number and NPI to tell your insurance provider. Hope to meet with you soon. Yasmina.

marriage counseling, 8 months weekly I do not want to come across as hateful because I'm not. My wife and I started seeing Yasmina at a highly disturbing time, my wife's surprise infidelity with a separation (also a surprise) that blindsided our daughter and myself with our daughter (not my daughter by blood but 13 years and love) going with her into a very unstable environment, getting ignored with no validation, this resulted in her being suicidal. So not an ideal situation for any therapist. Initial therapy was great, affordable and she actually helped us amend some issues enough to get our daughter back on track with us living together, dating, and what I thought was a marriage in repair. What didn't go well...from the start although not feeling any animosity from her she was critical,dismissive and condescending to me. From the very first meeting she ask for background story and when I was explaining what had and was going on she was critical of what I was telling her like it was only my perspective when in actuality it was fact, even after my wife admitted it was true she dismissed it as my problem to get over. After going home and reflecting I was hoping it was a way for her to bond with my wife due to her not wanting to be there and her feelings that "therapy was for chumps and does no good". To be honest I didn't care because my wife and daughter were back home and making progress even though the majority of the time although a pleasant person she was continually condescending to me, my thoughts and the way I felt. The axis of marriage in repair to cheating, stealing and divorce was when Yasmina didn't want to do marriage counseling but rather one on one with my wife. After some discussion about how it would be better for "us" I was made to feel as though it would be selfish if I didn't agree to only couples meetings if an emergency. 3 weeks in, my daughter finds past lovers being friend requested, instagrammed, etc. ......time for emergency meeting, right? Again I was made out to be overly sensitive and not trusting....really, I mean I didn't even find this crap because I WAS TRUSTING MY WIFE at face value. Nothing but dismissiveness from Yasmina, asking wife if anything going on, her saying a short "no" and turning to me and saying "see, nothing going on." ....I am getting knots in my chest reliving these moments. Again, at time I was hoping it was for commodore with wife so sucked it up and bit my tongue-not generally my M.O. . Not feeling great about things but I had hope it was going to work out with my wife being the one to come forward and apologize saying it was nothing but banter and deleting connections....Ya right, enough to make me dismiss it (my biggest flaw-wanting to believe the ones close are telling the truth). Another month and a half and me seeing things drifting farther apart, wife being super critical with me (I couldn't even get out of the car right, fml!) I asked if we could have a couples meeting. We went, it was nice, she (my wife was actually being what I thought was normal...somewhat nice) and when there i was asked what was going on and I explained happenings......Once again she turned to wife, asked "so is there anything going on", wife says "no", turns to me and explains to me how my critical viewpoint is not only wrong but is harming my own self, wtf? So fyi, initial and ongoing goal was child wellness and no matter what try and remain friends. I wanted a repaired marriage but if we got divorced I wanted to know we gave it an honest try and this therapy would be the best place to work together through the divorce...that was what I thought the WHOLE objective was about. It was 2 days after our therapy and my wife didn't come home from work, got physical with me when she did, said she never loved me and left with our daughter. In the process of divorce, she has stolen, lied in court, has shut off any contact with 16 yo daughter, taken one of my dogs, is trying to get me thrown in jail for harassment (I have not had any contact with her, lol), claiming half of everything I have be it a gift, heirloom, car owned before marriage, lol. I have had to change locks,and while packing her belongings have found drug paraphernalia, piles of stuff she was planning on taking to Olympia (not her stuff), tangible evidence of infidelity (started back up at same time of single counseling,btw) Yasmina was the first person I called that day, wanting to elaborate my feelings of validation for everything she had dismissed, been condescending about and my feelings she trivialized. I didn't say any of that, just told her what happened. She didn't facilitate the continuance or the cordial ending I had hoped for. This was last year (2016, Jan-Aug) I waited to review to let emotions calm so that everything said was without malice, I can be pretty salty and didn't want this to be.

Yasmina is an exceptional counselor. My husband and I have been seeing her for a few months now, and the improvements in out marriage are astounding! She makes you feel welcome and comfortable but knows how to get to talking about things that need to be talked about. I would absolutely recommend Yasmina!
