About Jordan
Jordan King is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) licensed in Florida and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) licensed in Utah with eight years of experience. He lists stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns among his focus areas and works with people on parenting, depression, addictions, grief and intimacy-related issues. Jordan also notes an interest in family of origin issues and related patterns that affect adult life.
He approaches sessions in a straightforward, practical way. He uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to the person in the room. He also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and DBT skills to manage strong emotions. Motivational interviewing is used when people want help making changes, and narrative ideas are used to look at how a person tells their life story.
Jordan’s background includes a Master’s in Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling with a focus in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of South Florida. He has experience supporting adults, adolescents, and children and has worked with issues around adoption, attachment, blended families and fatherhood concerns.
In sessions he focuses on concrete skills and clearer thinking. People can expect to talk through current problems, try exercises between sessions, and revisit what helps. He emphasizes collaboration and finding methods that fit each person’s goals.
For those worried that patterns from early family life keep repeating, he pays attention to family roles, communication problems and commitment or control issues. He also works with grief, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation and jealousy as they appear in day-to-day life.
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what the client brings to the session. Online sessions can keep that same focus by checking in about immediate concerns and priorities at the start of each meeting.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is about noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical exercises. Online meetings can include thought records, behavior experiments, and homework review to track small changes between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for handling intense emotions and improving relationships. When DBT skills are used online, sessions often practice grounding, distress tolerance, or emotion regulation techniques and plan how to use them in real life.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods suit their goals, needs, and preferences and will adjust the plan as progress is made.
The therapist’s original profile does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and remove travel time so people can use a break at work or return home sooner after a meeting.
