Jordan Gipson
I integrate cognitive behavioral, solution-based, and liberation-centered approaches with a warm and collaborative style. I work with both adolescents and adults, and tailor my approach to your needs because healing isn't linear. My practice is relational and culturally responsive - centered on healing through connection and clarity.
