My Approach
Welcome! I’m Jordan, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in long term individual psychotherapy.
I do this work because it’s genuinely close to my heart. I have 6 years of professional experience as a psychotherapist and 20 years of personal experience as a patient. My parents had severe problems which deeply affected me as a child, and I was lucky enough to meet an excellent therapist who truly changed my life. I became a therapist so I can help people in the way that he helped me. I know what it's like to be patient and therapist, which I believe gives me a unique perspective and approach. We'll develop a safe, supportive and trusting relationship and I won't pressure you beyond what you're ready for.
I've worked at Google and I understand the routine anxieties and stressors many people experience on a daily basis. I was also selected for a paid fellowship to work at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, in a clinical capacity in the ICU, so I also understand and work with people suffering from chronic and severe medical problems.
My approach is relational and psychodynamic, and I use techniques from CBT and other modalities. I also have experience working with clients of diverse backgrounds including racial/ethnic, socio-economic, gender and sexual orientations, and religious/spiritual beliefs.
