About Jordan

Jordan King is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor who focuses on family and parenting concerns among other issues. He helps with stress, anxiety, relationship and family problems, parenting challenges, depression, addictions, trauma and grief. Jordan works with adults, adolescents, children, couples, and families to build skills for daily life and repair strained relationships.

Jordan holds a Master’s in Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling with a focus in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of South Florida.

Background and approach

He has eight years of clinical experience and carries the Florida LMHC license FL LMHC MH20207 and the Utah LCMHC license 14235386-6004. He is also trained as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and has completed additional training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy. In sessions Jordan keeps the work practical and collaborative.

He listens first, then suggests tools that match a family’s goals. He draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thinking and on client-centered approaches to follow what matters most to the family. Motivational interviewing is used when people need help finding the next step.

For parents and caretakers he offers straightforward strategies for communication, boundaries, and managing behavior. For couples and families he focuses on improving interactions and solving recurring problems. He also supports those coping with loss, trauma, or major life changes.

Jordan provides sessions in English and sees clients in Florida. He offers a mix of formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, and uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Family Work

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the client. The therapist offers empathy and helps families set their own goals while guiding conversations toward what feels most important to them.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors, useful for anxiety, depression, and stress that affect family life.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. These tools can help with anger, impulsivity, and relationship patterns that strain families.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jordan will collaborate with each person or family to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. He adjusts strategies as needs change rather than sticking to one fixed plan.

Online therapy lets families use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to connect from home. That flexibility makes it easier to fit sessions around school, work, and childcare. These formats also let therapists offer skill practice and coaching between meetings so families can apply what they learn in daily life.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
