Jordan's Approach to Therapy

Jordan believes therapy works best when it feels like a genuine collaboration. She brings warmth, authenticity, and a touch of humour to the counselling room while helping clients navigate life's harder moments. Drawing on her training in EMDR, CBT, DBT-informed skills, Sand Tray Therapy, and family systems work, Jordan tailors therapy to each client's unique needs and goals. Whether you're working through trauma, relationship challenges, body image struggles, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, Jordan's goal is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to make meaningful change.

Common Questions

You do not need to be in crisis. Many people come in feeling stuck or sensing something is off, even when life looks fine from the outside. Curiosity is enough to start.

Mostly a conversation. A chance to share what brought you in, what you are hoping for, and what kind of support would feel most helpful. No pressure to have it figured out before you arrive.

Both offer the same quality of care. Virtual therapy can be easier for flexibility, while in-person therapy may feel better if you prefer being in the room together.

It depends on what you are working through. Some people benefit from a few focused sessions. Others prefer longer-term support. There is no fixed timeline. It is shaped around your goals.

Completely normal. A free consultation is available if you'd like to ask a few questions first, but it is optional. You are also welcome to take more time before booking an appointment.

Select insurance plans may be accepted. Ask at booking to confirm whether your plan is covered for therapy appointments.
