Jordan is an intern at Ellie Mental Health. She is currently completing her M.Ed. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a concentration in Veterans/ Military at William & Mary. Jordan is from a military family and is personally familiar with the unique challenges military families and service members face. While she specializes in this area, she loves working with individuals of any background and age. Some struggles Jordan can help with include, but are not limited to: anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, neurodivergence, and stress management.
Mental health counseling is a process. Jordan meets individuals where they are at, without judgement or expectations. Everyone is trying their best, right? As a counselor in-training, she places a lot of emphasis on that the counselor-client relationship is collaborative. Through this she hopes to foster the empowerment all individuals deserve in a safe, supportive space where they can build up their “tool box” of skills to meet their goals and live their best life.
As a person-centered, trauma-informed counselor, Jordan uses a range of interventions from the following approaches: Child-Centered Play Therapy, Strength-Based Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Expressive Arts Therapy, and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy.
