Jordan Brooks, LCSW

I am a psychotherapist and licensed clinical social worker working in private practice in Gainesville, FL.

Before opening my private practice, I worked in inpatient addiction treatment and chronic mental health programs, college counseling, and outpatient programs serving children who had experienced trauma. In addition to providing psychotherapy I have served as an instructor and faculty member in higher education.

I received my Bachelors of Art in Literature from Eckerd College, and my Masters in Social Work from University of South Florida. Currently I am in the process of pursuing a PhD in English at University of Florida where I study psychoanalysis.
