About Jordan

Jordan Achartz is an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor - practicing in Minnesota with six years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addictions, relationship and parenting concerns, and issues around self-esteem and life changes. Jordan also focuses on codependency, communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, jealousy, women's issues, and young adult concerns.

Jordan uses clear, direct conversation to help people name what feels heavy. Sessions are practical and conversational. She listens for patterns that keep a person stuck, then tries small, manageable adjustments together.

Her work draws on client-centered principles that prioritize the client's perspective. She pairs that with cognitive behavioral techniques to notice and shift unhelpful thinking. Elements of dialectical behavior therapy and mindfulness help with emotional regulation and staying present during hard moments.

Jordan also uses motivational interviewing when someone is figuring out change. That method breaks down big decisions into doable next steps. Many clients use it to address addictions, career moves, or relationship boundaries.

She presents options plainly and helps people decide what to try first. Sessions tend to focus on skills people can use between meetings, like noticing triggers, practicing new responses, and setting small goals. The aim is steady, practical work on the problems that brought someone in.

How Jordan uses evidence-based approaches online

Jordan often blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy in sessions. Client-centered work means the conversation follows what matters most to the person and the therapist reflects and clarifies. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving, which can help with anxiety, depression, and guilt-related rumination.

She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills when emotions feel overwhelming. DBT skills focus on practical tools for regulating intense feelings, tolerating distress, and improving communication. These approaches are presented in clear steps and practiced during sessions so people can try them between meetings.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jordan collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and everyday life. She checks in about what helps and adjusts the plan as needed so sessions stay practical and relevant.

The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins, or reduce travel time. Talk with Jordan about what will work best for timing, length, and how you prefer to meet.
