A clinician who truly gets it

I'm Jasmen Paul, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a background spanning school social work, early intervention, behavioral health, and child welfare. My training is evidence-based — but my approach is deeply human.


As a parent myself, I understand what it feels like to navigate a child's diagnosis, advocate within systems that weren't designed for your family, and wonder if you're doing enough. That lived experience sits alongside my clinical training every time I show up for the families I serve.


At Thrive Family Counseling & Wellness, every child who walks through the door is seen, valued, and met exactly where they are.
