Hello, I'm Jordan. I may have the honor of being your therapist and serve you through the season you're in. Whether that season brings marital challenges, relationship issues, infidelity, heartbreak, anger, depression, anxiety, or feeling lost, I will be dedicated to helping you process, connect, and grow towards intentional change and
perspective.
In over seven years of experience I have developed a passion for people and their individual stories and relationships. I'm commited to join your story and be a listening and supportive witness in your growth as your therapist—to see that the necessary uncomfortable is possible.
I provide individual therapy to adults and teens. I practice therapy from a place of empathy, nonjudgment, warmth and humor. I believe that each person holds wisdom and unique gifts and talents and that my role, as your therapist, is to reflect the light within you. I have been providing therapy for 20 years and worked in community mental health, as a clinical supervisor, for 14 years before fulfilling my dream of opening my full-time private practice in 2023.
We all reach seasons of life that feel bigger than what we expected to carry.
Maybe becoming a parent has felt more overwhelming than you imagined. Maybe your baby spent time in the NICU, and life after coming home hasn't looked the way you thought it would. Maybe you're a new dad trying to find your footing, feeling anxious, disconnected, or unsure of where you fit. Maybe you're worried about your child's development, or maybe you're navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, or a major life transition of your own.
I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families, with specialized experience supporting early childhood mental health, developmental differences and neurodiversity, pregnancy and postpartum, and families navigating NICU stays and medically complex journeys.
Whatever brings you here, my goal is to help you better understand what's happening, feel more confident moving forward, and create meaningful change that lasts beyond the therapy space.
Hello and welcome to my psychotherapy practice. My name is Matthew and I have been practicing as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in San Francisco and Los Angeles for over twenty years. I honor diversity and inclusion and provide a curious, non-judgmental space for reflection, healing and transformation. As a therapist, I bring a mix of pragmatic feedback and practical skills development to empower my clients to grow and change. As an Attachment-Focused EMDR therapist, I support clients with PTSD and interpersonal trauma to heal and become more present. I hold a Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology and Drama Therapy from the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco and I serve individuals, couples, families, youth, and the LGBTQ community.
I'm a licensed psychotherapist with 34 years of experience. I do my best to meet you "where you are" and to offer compassionate presence as you progress through your personal process of self-discovery, self-identification, and evolution.
I'm honored to be part of your journey of transformation. I approach sessions in collaboration, as you learn to free yourself from judgment, criticism, and pain; to change negative perceptions that do not serve; and to experience more ease and peace in life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Palmdale
Searching for therapists in Palmdale starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Many people look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, review their listed specialties and approach to care. Some may focus on cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, family therapy, or support for specific communities or life stages.
Palmdale has local therapy options, and nearby areas like Lancaster can expand your search. Virtual appointments can also make it easier to find a therapist who fits your schedule, especially if office location or commute time matters. Beyond specialty, look at appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can help you understand their communication style, session structure, and what working together may look like.
Therapy in Palmdale can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you compare therapists who are accepting new patients, check your insurance, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
