I am a New York State Licensed Social Worker with over 10 years of experience working in child welfare, hospital behavioral health settings and schools which have afforded me the opportunity to craft my skill of helping others live fulfilling lives.

It’s no secret that raising a teenager can be difficult. It’s often challenging to differentiate when teens are healthily working through issues or need help from an expert. If your teen is struggling at home, school, or the community, appears angrier or more irritable than usual, has started hanging out with a different group of friends, seems overly anxious, or engages in risk-taking behaviors- I can help! I also lend my expertise to young adults in the midst of life transitions. My goal is to help teens and young adults develop the necessary coping skills to live a satisfying life.

I'm Sandra Jordan, Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 20+ years of experience. The greatest lesson I've learned is that the most beautiful person you can be is yourself. Day to day we're faced with traditional/societal "norms" and told if you step outside this box you've somehow fallen short. Many face depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, destructive perfectionism, and more just trying to "measure up". I became a therapist to help people push through to better mental health and wellness.
