About Jordanna
Jordanna Herrell is a licensed professional counselor who works with individuals facing stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, mood concerns, ADHD, and trauma. She writes simply and directly about the challenges of change and offers practical help for people who feel overwhelmed by daily life. Jordanna uses clear, goal-focused methods in sessions.
She relies heavily on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and also draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness practices.
Background and approach
Sessions emphasize real skills you can try between meetings, not just talking about problems. Her practice aims to be warm and straightforward. She focuses on acceptance, genuineness, and treating people with positive regard.
The work often includes learning coping tools for anxiety, strategies to manage mood swings, and step-by-step plans for addressing addictive behaviors. Over eight years she has supported people with a wide range of concerns, including obsessive thoughts, panic attacks, sleeping problems, low self-esteem, and career stress.
She also works with issues tied to sexual identity and alternative sexual cultures such as BDSM and kink when clients raise those topics. Jordanna practices in South Carolina as an LPC and also holds a California LPCC credential. Sessions are offered in English, and international clients may be seen through online formats.
She encourages a collaborative approach where the person’s goals shape the plan.
Approach and online care that fit your life
Jordanna commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and OCD. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages noticing thoughts without fighting them and choosing actions that align with personal values, useful for stress, mood issues, and life changes.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. She will work with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences, and adjust the plan as progress is made. That collaborative process helps make sessions feel practical and tailored rather than one-size-fits-all.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are good for a full conversation and seeing nonverbal cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text allow for brief check-ins, notes between sessions, or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options can help fit therapy into busy schedules and varied lifestyles.
