Jordan believes there are no limits in our awareness and growth towards achieving optimal sexuality. She's passionately curious in unlocking sexual potential. A Chinese and Spanish heritage and background in Social Policy means she's described with an innate awareness and intersectional understanding of the barriers people face in society that inhibits access to our erotic selves. She's GSRD affirming, going beyond exclusivity and restrictions of LGBT (lesbian, gay,
bisexual
, trans) which includes everyone on the gender spectrum and diverse sexualities and practices including BDSM/Kink, asexualities, consensual and non-monogamies.

I’m a qualified therapist experienced in supporting individuals who identify as LGBT+ in addressing issues connected with self-esteem, self-worth and acceptance. I can help you address issues that are causing you emotional pain, giving you cause for concern, or making you feel uncomfortable. Whether you may be confronting difficult situations, facing challenging decisions, or healing from old wounds.

Life can throw many diverse challenges at us: for example loss, crisis and/or change that can cause us to question our sense of direction. I believe that within these challenging times we have the ability to grow and develop – even flourish – through exploring how the emotional, psychological and physical self are interconnected – the way in which one area feeds into another. This path of exploration often requires us to delve into our internal and external worlds: who we are, our authentic selves, others around us as well as the world in which we live.

*If you would like to work with me, please contact me initially by email only.* If something in your life keeps on repeating itself and you can't find a way to break the cycle, I can help. People come to me for support in figuring themselves out, and to look at whatever aspects of their lives are not functioning well. Many of my clients are Gender, Sex and Relationship Diverse (GSRD): LGBTQ+, kinky, non-monogamous and/or sex workers. Your identity may have no bearing on what you would like to bring to therapy - you may simply need to feel assured that you won't have to spend hours explaining things or debating your existence.

I offer help to people who worry or fear that they won't be understood or that they will be judged by others. Whoever you are, whatever the issue is, I'd like to be able to offer a space for you to be heard and accepted. I can offer a private and safe space simply to be without a mask if that's what you need, or if you have a clear idea of what you want to achieve I'd like to help make that happen. I can work in either a very loose or a structured and outcome-focused way, whichever appeals to you more. But however we decide to work, my focus is always what you want, what you need, what you dream of that you would like to make real.

I believe in the right environment we remain whole, uninhibited and naturally driven towards fulfillment of our desires and potential. Often other people’s agendas, anxiety and painful past events can separate us from this forward motion and better judgement. This can manifest mentally, bodily, emotionally and even dynamically in our careers, habits and close relationships.

Whenever you're not willing to feel an emotion, your choices and behaviours stem from your avoidance of that emotion. Your resistance runs your life & is directly contrary to your overall best interest. Similarly, traumas are incidents unable to be completed. The energies of these traumas are stored in our body until they can be released. I assist you to unlock these traumas by reactivating the emotional responses to these trapped emotions, which unlocks the synapses in the brain, allowing new positive emotional learning to replace the old trauma. Your energy field then becomes less dense, & a new sense of freedom takes hold.

In my practice I have been specialising in anxiety and dread. These symptoms can manifest in many ways and, we will experience them in our unique way. Perhaps you are dealing with relational difficulties, sense of inadequacy, or feeling not good enough. Working from home and managing your personal life alongside might be challenging and at times almost unbearable. Internal and external conflicts, personal crisis can also be an opportunity for growth and change if addressed in an empathic way by a non-judgemental other. I will help you transform your symptoms into a meaningful experience and help you alter the self-narrative.

The last few years have brought many people struggles with grief, loss, food and body, and traumatic experiences, and left them feeling stuck, overwhelmed and needing support. My professional expertise is in working with clients struggling with trauma and PTSD; struggling with eating disorders, body image and identity; child and adult bereavement; clients undergoing cancer treatment/ end of life care & their carers. This breadth of experience has informed my understanding of the universality of inner conflict and distress, and how the tools of self-exploration and insight are essential to effect change in the here-and-now.

I work with individuals aged 16+ who are slowly coming to terms with the realisation that something in their life is not working for them, it's working against them. They want to come to terms with it and/or work on changing it. This could be a combination of issues. A past experience, a current relationship, overwhelming emotions or identity issues to name a few. They want to live a life that is worth living, be present in their lives and gain resilience if life becomes difficult again. This can be done through therapy by gaining awareness and creating change.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online or over the phone can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postcode.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In many countries, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counsellor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counsellors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist, psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counsellor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counsellors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
