I am licensed in Wisconsin with 4 years of professional work experience, specifically working with family systems, couples therapy, and individual therapy. Before that, I had experience in emergency settings and case management. As my role as a therapist, I feel very privileged to be a part of your journey and discovery in therapy. I believe in unconditional positive regard towards my clients, and adhere to the clinically-proven belief of the client-counselor relationship being the highest indicator of successful therapy- more so than any specific modality.
I will curate your therapy to fit who you are as person. I have experience with multiple therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), SFBT (Solution-focused Brief Therapy), Narrative Therapy, Existential Therapy, Motivational Interviewing (MI), and more. I believe that no one therapy is perfect for one person, and will draw upon multiple modalities in your sessions. Your world view, identity, and beliefs are important, and it is my job to see you and your life through those perspectives.
I practice trauma-informed care. I am an LGBTQ+ ally. If I make a mistake, I will acknowledge it, own it, and do my best to make it right. And, a little bit about myself, I am a certified Therapeutic Game Master through Geek Therapeutics – so you know I’m a nerd.
In this “about me” I also want to address the individual and collective trauma that has been the global pandemic, caused by COVID 19. I look forward to meeting you, hearing your story, and earning your trust.

Jordan is wonderful. I always feel comfortable when I talk with her. When I took the step to start therapy it always took a lot for me to feel ready to open up about things because I was so worried about judgement, but I have never once felt any of that with Jordan. I’ve found that I’m my biggest critic and she is helping me learn to be forgiving and allow myself grace.

Down to earth, smart, cool. Is great at focusing my sessions while being able to explore other issues.

Jordan Manley is my first therapist and last therapist , that’s how good she is! I could NOT be happier with my experience over the last year. Not only is she caring, kind and wise, she is also compassionate about helping people and I could not recommend a better therapist than her. Therapy can seem daunting but she made it so easy to get into, and she has helped me tremendously! If I could give 1000/10 that still wouldn’t be good enough! Awesome service, awesome therapist, and just an awesome person!!!
