Jordan’s therapeutic approach
- Cognitive Behaviour Therapy: assists with understanding the workings of the mind, and is designed to change specific behaviours, reduce anxiety, and manage depression
- Existential psychology: focuses on how we derive meaning from our lives, and assists with making sense of difficulties and challenges encountered, and understanding where these fit within the greater scheme of things.
- Mindfulness: focuses specifically on managing uncomfortable emotions, so they do not interfere with things that are important in our lives.
- Psychodynamic psychology: looks into our family history to help understand where particular repeating patterns and challenges have originated. This process can also provide direction on how to best manage and address the challenges.
