Jordan Penner

Walking into a first session with Jordan Penner, most people feel the relief of finally being heard by someone who is already thinking about solutions. Jordan is a Registered Clinical Counsellor based in Surrey, British Columbia, who has spent fifteen years helping individuals, couples, and families turn persistent obstacles into workable strategies — not by cataloguing what’s wrong, but by locating what’s strong.

Jordan works with children, teenagers, adults, and families navigating addiction, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, abuse recovery, high-conflict divorce, and co-parenting — bringing specialized training in DBT, EMDR, and trauma-informed care to build a plan that fits each person’s specific situation. For clients whose nervous systems are running on fumes from never truly powering down — the ones who reach for a screen instead of sleep and can’t remember the last time their mind went quiet — Jordan treats that pattern as a clinical issue worth addressing directly, not a habit to push through.

Sessions are practical and purposeful. Jordan draws on a wide range of therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Gestalt, adapting the tools to the person rather than the other way around. Online sessions are available, with flexible scheduling that includes evenings and weekends.
