Jordan Thayer(he, him/they, them)

Dr. Jordan Thayer is a licensed psychologist in Washington who works with teens, young adults, and high-pressure professionals navigating trauma, suicidality, ADHD, identity questions, and difficult life transitions. He often works with young men in tech or leadership roles, queer and gender-diverse young adults, and parents seeking thoughtful support for children or teens struggling at home, in relationships, or at school.

Jordan’s approach starts from the belief that people’s patterns make sense in context. Rather than viewing symptoms in isolation, he helps clients understand how their history, nervous system, environment, and internal coping strategies are interacting in the present. His work integrates trauma-focused treatment, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), parts work, and parent coaching to help clients build insight, flexibility, and a stronger sense of agency.

He has particular experience supporting clients living with chronic suicidal thoughts, self-harm, and complex trauma, and aims to offer a space where these experiences can be talked about directly, without panic, shame, or overreaction. Clients often seek him out when they want a therapist who can handle intensity, think deeply, and stay grounded while helping them make meaningful change.

In addition to therapy, Jordan provides ADHD and learning evaluations that look beyond checklists to understand executive functioning, emotional health, trauma, and the real-life demands of school, work, and relationships. His background includes years of work in schools, hospitals, and community settings, and he continues to train other professionals in trauma-informed, school-based, and suicide-specific care.

Dr. Thayer offers in-person and virtual therapy for clients across Washington.
