Trauma & Couples Therapist in Peoria, AZ
Jasmin Corral, LAC
Serving Adults + Teens
The coping strategies that got you through (staying busy, keeping the peace, putting everyone else first) made sense for a long time. But at some point they started costing more than they gave. And now you're here, quietly wondering if this is just how life feels, or if something can actually shift.
It can shift. Not because of empty encouragement, but because real change is possible when we begin working with the patterns underneath.

Can therapy help with both trauma and relationship struggles?
Many of the people who find their way here are navigating both — the impact of past experiences and the strain those patterns place on relationships today.
I work with teens (14+), adults, older adults, and couples across many life stages, bringing particular warmth to those who are new to therapy or returning after a difficult experience. My goal is always the same: meeting you where you are, without judgment or pressure.
My clients often include:
Individuals navigating anxiety, depression, or trauma who are ready to understand the root, not just manage the symptoms
Couples feeling stuck in cycles of conflict, distance, or miscommunication who want to find their way back to each other
Older adults and caregivers carrying the emotional weight of aging, loss, and shifting family roles
People who have spent years caring for others and are beginning to realize they've lost track of themselves
Teens (14+) navigating identity, anxiety, or the pressures of growing up in an increasingly complex world
"Whether you're facing personal struggles, relationship issues, or simply looking for guidance through change — I'm here to help you move toward meaningful and lasting growth. You don't have to navigate this alone."
— Jasmin Corral, LAC
How couples therapy works — and why it's different here
For couples, I create a space where both people feel genuinely heard — not judged, not sided with, but understood. I'm not here to assign blame or declare a winner. I'm here to help partners see each other more clearly and build something more honest and connected.
A lot of what looks like a communication problem is actually two nervous systems responding to old wounds. Understanding that changes everything about how we approach the work together — shifting the focus from blame to curiosity, and helping both partners respond to each other in new ways.
Therapy for Caretaker Burnout and Life Transitions
My clients who carry the most are often the ones who have never been asked how they're doing — really doing. Caretaker burnout doesn't announce itself. It builds quietly until one day the patience runs out, the body gives out, or the sense of self has gone missing entirely.
I draw from CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, EMDR, and trauma-informed care — not as rigid protocols, but as tools I use based on what you actually need. The through-line is always the same: understanding what's underneath, and building something more sustainable in its place.
What to expect in your first session with me in Peoria, AZ
My clients are often people who have spent a long time being strong for everyone else. They don't need more advice. They need someone who will finally ask the right questions and stay steady when the honest answers come out.
That's what I show up to do. I'm direct without being harsh, and patient without letting avoidance run the room. Your first session is simply a conversation. There's no pressure to have everything figured out or to tell me everything at once.
Specialties: trauma, anxiety, grief + first responders
My work spans each of these areas — and in most cases, they're connected. Trauma doesn't stay in one lane, and neither does healing.
EMDR and grief therapy training + qualifications
I’m trained in EMDR through Francine Shapiro’s foundational model alongside the full clinical team at Inside Out, and I’m also a Certified Grief Doula — training that informs how I support clients navigating trauma, loss, and major life transitions.
I hold a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and am a Licensed Associate Counselor (LAC), with experience across individual, group, and psychoeducational settings.
My clinical work includes supporting clients from diverse backgrounds and socioeconomic experiences, including individuals navigating the criminal legal system, government agency environments, and the aftermath of crime.
Grounded in both clinical training and personal faith, I approach therapy with deep respect for each person’s story and the resilience it takes to move toward healing.
A little more about me
Outside the therapy room, I'm most myself when I'm with the people I love. You'll find me exploring new coffee shops, thrifting for hidden gems, and saying yes to any excuse to travel somewhere new.
I believe balance and connection aren't just things to talk about in therapy — they're things worth building into everyday life. That same spirit is what you'll find when you walk into a session with me.

Common Questions About Working With Me
-
Not at all. Many of my clients come in describing anxiety, caretaker exhaustion, or relationship struggles — not a single traumatic event. Whatever has been building up quietly deserves to be addressed, regardless of how it compares to someone else's experience.
-
Talk therapy helps you understand your experience. EMDR helps your nervous system actually process it — so the memory loses its charge and stops driving your reactions in the present. Learn more at EMDRIA.org.
-
Yes. Inside Out sees both individuals and couples, and our clinicians are matched to each client's specific needs. If you're unsure whether individual or couples therapy is the right starting point, we can talk through that together before your first session.
-
I hear this often — and it's usually not because therapy doesn't work, but because the fit wasn't right or the approach wasn't matched to what was actually going on underneath. A consultation is a low-pressure way to see if this feels different.
