About Rebecca
Rebecca Jordan is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California who focuses on parenting and family-related concerns alongside stress, anxiety, trauma, and mood struggles. She uses a warm, nonjudgmental manner to help people name what feels off and decide what small changes to try next. Sessions are practical and straightforward so parents can use ideas between appointments.
Rebecca emphasizes support and partnership while people take the steps that feel right for them.
Background and approach
With seven years as a therapist and a longer history in social work, she brings steady experience to conversations about parenting, relationships, and coping with life changes. Rebecca helps people manage difficult emotions, build confidence, and address patterns like avoidance or codependency. She also guides those facing grief, caregiver stress, chronic health challenges, or identity-related concerns.
Her approach blends evidence-based tools such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. Rebecca teaches skills for handling strong feelings, improving communication, and staying present when worries spike. She tailors methods to each person instead of using a one-size-fits-all plan.
Sessions typically focus on clear goals and practical steps that fit busy family life. Rebecca supports people through transitions like blended family adjustments, adoption and foster questions, and changes in work or health. She aims to make steady progress without overwhelming clients.
People meet her in a conversational and focused style. Rebecca listens closely, reflects what she hears, and offers tools to practice between sessions. The work is collaborative and paced to each individual’s needs and daily routines.
Therapeutic approaches and online support
Rebecca uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. ACT often helps when worry or avoidance keeps someone from doing what matters to them. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood, and sleep issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca treats therapy as a collaborative process and will help determine which methods fit a person’s goals and life. Together they set priorities and try practical tools, adjusting the plan based on what helps most in day-to-day family and parenting life.
Online therapy offers flexibility for parents and busy schedules. Sessions can be done by video call or phone, and short check-ins or written support are available via live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into routines and to practice skills between meetings with a licensed professional.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.
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.
