student photoJazmine Hasty ’18 is now a graduate student at the University of South Carolina studying Counselor Education in Clinical Mental Health (Ed.S.). As part of her program, Jazmine is training in communication skills, theories in counseling, play therapy, cultural awareness, and self-reflection. She is highly motivated by the opportunity to be a part of Black/African American representation in the mental health field, and she sees her graduate degree as a means to fulfill her ambition of helping others. For others considering graduate study, Jazmine suggests that you should not be afraid of making mistakes: “it’s going to happen and in the counseling field, it is one of the ways to improve.”

Jazmine is also a coauthor with Psychology professor Dr. Lisa Ross on a 2018 publication in The Journal of Psychology: Interdisciplinary and Applied. She contributed to this research on anxiety, drinking, and unpredictability beliefs as part of her Bachelor’s Essay work with Dr. Ross. While at CofC, Jazmine also conducted research with Dr. Chelsea Reid on nostalgia in addition to her many community involvements, including working as a therapeutic assistant at a regional inpatient facility where she helped psychologists and counselors treat previously incarcerated patients with mental illnesses.
