Dr. Gary Jordan, TX Psychologist 22431, CA Psychologist PSY7229

Dr. Gary Jordan is a clinical psychologist who helps people navigate anxiety, stress, depression, and the painful effects of life transitions. He frames emotional and relational struggles as common responses to difficult circumstances - whether those challenges arise from relationship conflict, family pressures, career setbacks, or the unsettling shift of a major life change. He offers steady, practical support for sorting through confusion, reducing overwhelming feelings, and recognizing personal strengths and value.

He holds a Ph.D. in clinical psychology from the California School of Professional Psychology - Berkeley, a doctoral degree that prepared him for assessment and treatment of complex emotional issues. He is a licensed psychologist in Texas (TX Psychologist 22431) and California (CA Psychologist PSY7229), credentials that reflect state licensure to practice psychology in both states.

Across decades of practice, Dr. Jordan has worked in community mental health, private practice, inpatient facilities, corporate settings, and nursing homes. While the settings and specific concerns have varied, he observes that underlying conflicts and painful patterns often repeat across lives. He combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with psychodynamic principles and positive emotional support to help people explore early wounds, challenge negative self-talk, and interrupt destructive habits that reinforce self-doubt and shame.

His approach focuses on helping individuals reframe long-standing beliefs, replace self-negating thoughts with constructive alternatives, and recover capacities that may have been lost to old coping strategies. Whether someone seeks a brief tune-up or a deeper course of work, Dr. Jordan aims to help them discover new skills, address recurring patterns, and move forward with greater purpose and ease.
