About Roosevelt

Roosevelt Jordan is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 20 years of experience helping people manage strong emotions and life stress. He supports people dealing with anger, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, trauma, and relationship concerns. He speaks English and works with clients in California as well as international clients.

Roosevelt focuses on building trust through active, empathetic listening. He emphasizes the whole person and pays attention to each person's values and life story.

Background and approach

Sessions are intended to feel like a steady, calm conversation where practical steps are discussed. He often uses client-centered methods that follow the client’s own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of his toolbox to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

He also brings mindfulness and motivational interviewing into sessions when these fit a person’s needs. In practice Roosevelt aims to help people notice patterns, make small changes, and try different coping skills. He draws on two decades of experience to guide problem-solving and support difficult decisions.

The work can include short-term skill building or a longer process of understanding what drives strong reactions. Roosevelt describes his role as a steady companion in the work of change. He helps people set realistic goals, track progress, and adjust plans as life shifts.

People who want a thoughtful, listening-based approach often find his style accessible and direct.

Approaches Roosevelt lists

Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist names and does not check training records.

Approaches you can use online

Roosevelt commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when working with clients. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely to the person and following their goals; it helps people feel heard and decide what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical tools to reduce anger, anxiety, and unhelpful reactions.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. He will work collaboratively with each person to choose or blend methods based on needs, goals, and what feels comfortable. That may mean starting with a listening-focused plan and adding CBT skills or motivational interviewing as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and preferences. Video sessions allow fuller interaction and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging let people send brief updates, ask questions between sessions, or use written check-ins when that format fits a person’s routine.
