Her practice includes experience with trauma, self-harm, and abuse, and she has specific training in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, an approach designed to help children and adolescents ages 3 to 18 who have experienced traumatic events.

She focuses on empowering clients, helping them build skills to manage symptoms, improve relationships, and pursue a more fulfilling life. Jordan holds an MD and an LCSW-C - the latter indicating a clinical social work license - and draws on clinical training and hands-on experience to guide her therapeutic work.

Cognitive and Mindful Approaches for Online Therapy

Jordan integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness techniques into online work to help clients build practical skills and increase present-moment awareness. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them against real-life evidence to reduce symptoms of anxiety, panic, depression, and related concerns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to help people manage stress, regulate emotion, and respond to triggers with greater clarity.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jordan works with each person to explore which strategies fit their goals, needs, and preferences, making adjustments over time so therapy remains relevant and useful. The client and therapist decide together which tools to prioritize.

Online sessions offer flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during transitions, and access licensed professionals from home or work. The same therapeutic principles used in person can be adapted effectively for virtual formats to support progress and long-term skill building.
