Jordan Kennon
About
Hi! I’m Dr. Jordan Kennon, a licensed clinical psychologist based in Chicago. My background is in rehabilitation psychology and neuropsychology, with extensive experience in psychological and neuropsychological assessment.
I genuinely enjoy getting to know people and understanding what makes each person unique. I approach evaluations with curiosity, compassion, and a commitment to getting to the root of what someone is experiencing. I believe it’s just as important to recognize a person’s strengths as it is to understand their challenges, and I strive to make the assessment process a positive, collaborative experience.
My interest in working with autistic individuals began in graduate school, when I had the opportunity to work with children on the autism spectrum. I really enjoyed this work and became so interested in it that I pursued additional training in autism assessment, including the ADOS, and sought out more opportunities to work with this population.
I’ve always appreciated the unique ways people think, learn, and experience the world. I enjoy getting to know each person as an individual, understanding their strengths and challenges, and helping them better understand themselves.
I believe that understanding someone’s strengths is just as important as identifying areas where they may need support. I approach each evaluation with an open mind and take the time to understand the person beyond their test results. My goal is to help individuals better understand how they think, learn, and process information, while recognizing the strengths that make them who they are.
