About Rebecca

Rebecca Jordan is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California who focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and motivation. She helps people who want clearer direction, stronger self-esteem, and steadier emotional balance. Her manner is warm and straightforward, aimed at making difficult topics easier to talk about.

Rebecca draws on seven years of clinical therapy experience and a longer career as a social worker to guide practical change. She creates a calm space where clients can say what they think and feel without judgment. Sessions are conversational and goal-minded, with time set aside to practice skills between meetings.

Her approach blends evidence-informed methods to match each person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify values and take actions that matter to them.

Rebecca also uses client-centered and emotionally focused techniques to strengthen communication and relationships. She supports people dealing with grief, addiction, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and career or life transitions. Rebecca pays attention to how past experiences like abandonment or adoption can shape current patterns.

Her work aims to help people build practical skills and steady routines. Rebecca encourages small, manageable steps that fit everyday life. To begin, she asks clients to say what matters to them and then helps set realistic next steps.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take steps toward those values, even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings appear. It often helps with stress, anxiety, and life transitions by clarifying priorities and building small actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. It uses practical exercises and worksheets that translate well to online sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing strong emotions and tolerating distress, which can be useful for mood instability, anger, and relationship strain.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, needs, and preferences and then recommend a mix of methods. That decision is collaborative and may change as progress is made.

Session logistics should fit daily life, such as arranging meetings around work or caregiving and using check-ins to keep momentum between appointments. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to keep continuity of care, fit therapy into a busy schedule, and practice skills in real-world contexts without needing to travel.
