About Maudeen

Maudeen Jordan is an LCSW with three decades of clinical experience who blends cognitive behavioral ideas with client-centered and trauma-informed practices. She trained at California State University in San Jose and has provided counseling since 1990, pairing evidence-informed techniques with a personable, compassionate approach.

Background and approach

Over the years she has worked in diverse settings, including services for developmentally disabled children, independent practice for mood and trauma-related concerns, and bereavement work as a hospice bereavement coordinator. Her practice emphasizes practical tools such as journaling, homework assignments, and communication skills to help clients identify goals and take small, steady steps toward them.

Maudeen draws on EMDR when addressing post-traumatic stress, and she integrates mindfulness and emotionally-focused elements to support emotional processing and relational work. She also offers life coaching strategies when clients want structured, goal-oriented support alongside therapy.

Maudeen brings personal experience as a long-distance caregiver and as someone who values spiritual life and meditation, which informs her sensitivity around grief, caregiving stress, and spiritual losses. Located in Oregon, she accepts international clients and aims to collaborate with each person to clarify values, reduce distress, and move toward meaningful change.

Integrating evidence-based approaches into online care

Maudeen uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety, depression, and stress through practical, goal-oriented exercises. She also relies on EMDR when trauma memories are central, applying guided bilateral stimulation alongside processing to help lessen the emotional intensity of traumatic material. In addition, her client-centered stance emphasizes listening, validation, and collaboratively setting goals so that treatment reflects each person's values and priorities.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Maudeen works together with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative exploration can include trying different techniques and adjusting the plan over time so the work remains relevant and useful.

Online therapy with Maudeen is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules, caregivers, and people in different locations. These formats make it possible to access licensed professionals from wherever a client is located while maintaining continuity of care and the ability to engage in homework, journaling, and skill practice between sessions.
