Jordan Carlson-Premack (she/her), MSW, LGSW

I have a passion for supporting individuals who are navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, agoraphobia, eating disorders, and other mood and behavioral difficulties. I’ve had the privilege of working with members of the LGBTQ+ community and people in non-traditional relationships, which has deepened my understanding and approach.

With training in DBT and narrative exposure therapy, I also draw from CBT, poetry therapy, exposure and response prevention, and interpersonal psychotherapy. My therapeutic style is open, nonjudgmental, and centered on meeting clients where they are, creating a safe space for them to explore and grow. I find it especially rewarding when I can help people transform unhelpful behavior patterns, clarify their goals, overcome obstacles, and develop a more compassionate and validating inner voice.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

ACP’s DBT program adheres to the Linehan model of DBT, is certified by MN DHS. Our clients meet with their individual therapist for one hour a week and attend a two-hour weekly skills group for at least 26 weeks. Unlike traditional group psychotherapy which focuses on processing experiences and feelings, DBT groups focus on learning four sets of important skills: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT is a very effective treatment for multiple conditions including borderline personality disorder, depression, PTSD, impulsivity, eating disorders, and some forms of anxiety.

Telehealth Services

To expand and improve our care options for clients, ACP offers Telehealth (phone or video) appointments. Telehealth uses phone or video conferencing to connect you with highly qualified and experienced providers in real-time from the comfort and convenience of your own home or office. Before your telehealth appointment, you will receive details for how you will connect with your provider. If you will be connecting via phone, the provider will plan to call you at your scheduled appointment time. Please be ready to take the call and also check that your phone allows calls from blocked numbers (accessible within your phone settings). If you will be connecting via video conference, your provider will email you an invite to join the appointment. Please call our office to learn more about ACP’s telehealth services and to schedule an appointment.
