About Jordanna

Jordanna Herrell is a licensed professional counselor who offers straightforward support when life feels overwhelming. She uses clear, practical methods to help people reduce stress and manage anxiety. Her approach aims to make difficult changes feel more doable. She works with adults facing problems like depression, addiction, relationship strain, ADHD, and intimacy-related concerns.

She practices from a viewpoint of acceptance and genuine regard. Sessions focus on real situations and concrete skills rather than long abstractions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a common tool she uses to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. She also draws on mindfulness and acceptance-based ideas to help people stay grounded when emotions are intense.

Over eight years she has supported people through mood disorders, trauma and abuse, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and sleep disruptions. She also addresses life transitions, career stress, and issues tied to sex and kink culture, including BDSM and alternative sex communities. This background helps her tailor practical plans for each person.

Her style is collaborative and strengths-focused. She helps clients set small, achievable goals and practices skills between sessions. Expect a direct, empathetic tone and step-by-step guidance rather than judgement.

If someone is ready to try therapy, she encourages a first step that fits the person’s pace. The work aims to build resilience and clearer choices so everyday life becomes easier to manage.

How these approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match your values. It can help when worry, avoidance, or stuck patterns get in the way of a meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms. It is practical and goal-oriented, useful for many everyday problems. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and improve sleep and mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they’ll try methods that fit the person’s needs and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking so you know what will work for your routine. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full session isn’t possible. Therapists can assign short between-session practices and use structured exercises that translate well to remote sessions. The focus remains on practical tools you can apply in daily life.
