Jordan has been a psychotherapist for over a decade, a path shaped by both professional training and lived experience. She earned her Master’s in Social Work through the advanced standing program at the University of Central Florida in 2016. While in graduate school, she worked in a Crisis Stabilization Unit in Orlando, Florida and supported callers through that National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (now called 988), sitting with people during some of their most vulnerable moments.

Originally from Florida, Jordan moved to the West Coast on her own in 2016, shortly after graduate school. In San Diego, she spent several years working in community mental health, providing psychosocial rehabilitation to individuals experiencing homelessness and severe mental health challenge. It was during this time that she worked closely with people from many cultures and life stages, including seniors, immigrants, the local BIPOC community, and members of the LGBTQSIA+ community.

In 2021, Jordan's work took on deeper personal meaning following her own IVF journey and transition into motherhood during a global pandemic. Wanting to fully support parents through pregnancy, postpartum, and the identity shifts that come with it, she pursued post graduate training through Postpartum Support International and became a Certified Perinatal Mental Health Specialist. Today, she brings this specialized training into her work with mothers and their partners, offering thoughtful, attuned support through one of life’s most tender and transformative seasons.

My Approach

Those who have worked with me often describe me as a warm and compassionate therapist. I believe you are the expert of your own story. My role is not to tell you who you are, but to walk alongside you and help you better understand yourself as you grow and heal.

My approach is feminist and non-pathologizing. This means I don’t see you as “broken”. Instead of asking, “What’s wrong with you” I ask, “What happened to you?” I am informed by and weave together psychodynamic therapy, narrative work, and EMDR to honor your story, your neurotype, and the patterns that shape your life.

I honor all parts of who you are and the many identies you hand. I understand that our culture, family history, and society shapes our mental health. My work is holistic, meaning I see and recognize the connection between your mind, body and spirit. I also recognize how intergenerational trauma and ongoing colonial systems of oppressyoon can impact your mental health and well being.
