Jordana Joseph Therapy

I am LGBTQI, polyamory, kink, and sex work positive, having supported diverse communities. I incorporate mindfulness and meditation into my practice to support mental well-being and have a deep appreciation for creativity, enjoying the opportunity to foster the creative processes of artists. My areas of focus are with anxiety, depression, ADHD and neurodiversity. I offer a range of therapeutic approaches, integrating psychodynamic therapy with cognitive-behavioral techniques such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). My practice is grounded in a client-centered, trauma-informed framework, and I value incorporating direct feedback and humor into therapy.

In therapy, I aim to build a supportive and empathetic relationship, tailoring our work to your unique needs, whether you seek brief or long-term support. I believe in exploring and embracing the messiness of therapy to uncover your strengths and resilience, creating a safe space where vulnerability can lead to meaningful growth.

My background includes training in harm-reduction models, with experience in HIV test counseling, HIV case management, reproductive healthcare decision making. I have worked conducting street outreach, and worked in hospital-based and community health clinics. A key part of my experience is my time with St. James Infirmary, a clinic serving sex workers. I am San Francisco Sex Information (SFSI) trained, and am currently pursuing AASECT certification.
