Dr. Jodi Manning

I’m a Buddhist psychotherapist and Doctor of Social Work (DSW), offering telehealth therapy throughout New Jersey and Arizona. Navigating life’s challenges can leave us feeling lost, overwhelmed, or unsure of how to move forward. If you’re experiencing strong emotions such as anxiety, depression, fear, anger, or grief, I offer a safe and compassionate space to help you explore and understand your experience. With warmth and deep presence, I support you in building clarity, resilience, and a more grounded relationship with yourself. Together, we can work through difficulty and reconnect you with your inner strength and purpose.

We'll use CBT, DBT, and integrate Buddhist psychology and mindfulness to help you find relief from suffering. Our world has been especially challenging lately and it is normal to feel overwhelmed and to not know what to do or where to turn. We can work together to explore the things that you’re struggling with, in a safe and caring environment. For many people, asking for help is difficult, yet it is a brave first step in finding relief. I want you to know that feeling better is within reach.

Through a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Buddhist Psychology, you’ll learn to develop effective coping strategies, build resilience, and reconnect with clarity, inner strength, and self-awareness.

Therapy with me offers a calm, supportive, and collaborative space where all parts of you are welcome—especially the ones feeling stuck, confused, or overwhelmed. No need to be Buddhist; what matters is your openness to explore with curiosity and care. If this approach resonates, feel free to reach out for a free consultation.

Please send me a message to request a phone consultation rather than scheduling directly on Headway. (The calendar is not always accurate.) Thank you. =)
