Great to meet you!
Hello! My name is Ryan Jordan and I am currently an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. I obtained a Masters of Science in Counseling Psychology degree from Hope International University. Some of the academic curriculum specialized in: family systems, biopsychosocial thought, psychodynamic approaches, and person centered interventions. Therapeutically, I specialize in substance abuse counseling/addiction, as I am a certified substance use counselor and have worked in substance abuse treatment before becoming a therapist. Further, I have extensive experience working with kids & adolescents who struggle with emotional defiance/conduct disorders & developmental disabilities. Further, a good brunt of experience has been in dual diagnosis treatment and grief/loss issues. My passion in being a therapist is to see and embrace progress, meet people where they are at, being present during “aha” moments, and serve altruistically. Outside of being a therapist, I enjoy participating in ministry work, being active in recreational sports, volunteering as a crisis counselor & hospice volunteer. Some of my past work experience has included: working in special education as a substitute teacher, in the public-school sector as a tutor/instructional assistant, and as an in-home behavior interventionist working with kids who have developmental disabilities.
