Divorce and separation concerns are listed among her focus areas and are addressed within the context of coping and adjustment.

With six years of professional experience and the credential LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor), Jordan draws on practical tools to help people manage symptoms and make clearer choices.

How Jordan's approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy means the conversation is guided by the client's needs and priorities. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps the client name goals and next steps. This approach helps when someone needs space to sort through feelings around major changes like separation or career shifts.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes and can include at-home practice between sessions.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. Jordan will collaborate with clients to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and personal style. That might mean starting with short-term skills from CBT, adding mindfulness practice, or using motivational interviewing to support change.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, please confirm current options before booking. Online work can allow shorter check-ins during a break, or regular longer sessions when schedules permit, and it can make it easier to practice skills in real-life settings between meetings.
