Our Team
Jassica Ashraf
At AlmaCare, Jassica plays a pivotal role in the child psychology and neurodevelopmental support division. Her work focuses on helping neurodivergent children—including those with autism spectrum conditions, ADHD, and sensory processing challenges—develop essential emotional, cognitive, and behavioral skills. She blends several therapeutic approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), play therapy, and Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)-informed techniques to design individualized care plans tailored to each child's strengths and needs.
Jassica’s therapeutic style is rooted in empathy, structure, and respect for each child's unique way of experiencing the world. She believes that therapy should not be a place to “fix” a child, but rather a space where the child feels seen, heard, and empowered. Her sessions often incorporate play-based interaction to build trust and engagement, while subtly introducing structured behavioral and emotional learning interventions.
Parental involvement is also central to her work. Jassica ensures that families are educated, supported, and actively involved in their child’s progress. By building collaborative relationships with caregivers, she helps create a consistent support system that extends beyond the therapy room—into the home, school, and social environment.
Beyond one-on-one sessions, Jassica is a key contributor to AlmaCare’s early intervention program. She works closely with pediatricians, speech therapists, and educators to conduct multidisciplinary assessments and help identify developmental concerns at the earliest stages. Her goal is to offer children a head start with timely support that shapes their social and emotional growth positively.
At AlmaCare, Jassica Ashraf Tanago follows a structured yet flexible approach designed to honor the individuality of each child. Her method integrates evidence-based therapy with compassionate, child-led engagement — ensuring families feel supported every step of the way.
Jassica brings a rich academic foundation and a culturally sensitive approach to her clinical practice. With over 5 years of hands-on experience, she is known for her ability to connect deeply with children and families while delivering measurable results.

What sets Jassica apart is her rare combination of clinical rigor and emotional warmth. Her sessions are meticulously planned but deeply human. Parents describe her as both compassionate and strategic—someone who can navigate clinical complexity while preserving the joy, spontaneity, and wonder of childhood. Whether she is helping a toddler with limited speech express their needs through play, or supporting a school-aged child with focus and behavior regulation, Jassica adapts her interventions to meet each child exactly where they are. Her strength lies in her ability to bring clarity, calm, and confidence to families during times of uncertainty.
