Founder & Director of Feelings First Mental Health Counseling PLLC, Jasmine Jackson MS.Ed., LMHC-D, LCMHC, LPC alongside one of our Clinical Supervisor Chelsea Thornton, LCSW attended the Black Health Connect Q4 Mixer in Philadelphia, joining other mental health professionals, wellness advocates, and industry leaders or color who are committed to advancing mental health and wellness in their communities.

Through this experience, Jasmine and Chelsea had the opportunity to build meaningful professional connections, exchange ideas, and explore the value of collaboration across the mental health and wellness fields. The event reinforced the importance of creating spaces where professionals can share resources, learn from one another, and develop partnerships that support more inclusive, accessible, and culturally responsive mental health care.

At Feelings First Mental Health Counseling, collaboration is viewed as an essential part of growth and community impact. By engaging with organizations such as Black Health Connect, the practice continues to strengthen professional relationships, expand its network, and explore opportunities that align with its mission to promote mental wellness and reduce barriers to care. As Feelings First continues to grow, the practice looks forward to building new partnerships and participating in initiatives that create meaningful change beyond the therapy room.
