I'm Jennifer Teplin, LCSW, the Founder and Clinical Director of Manhattan Wellness.

Manhattan Wellness is built on the belief that individuals deserve more than just checking off boxes in life—they deserve to thrive authentically. With a Master’s degree from Columbia University and recognition in Cosmopolitan, Oprah Magazine, Yahoo!, Well + Good, The EveryGirl, Forbes Health, Bumble, and Business Insider, I’ve dedicated my career to empowering people to overcome challenges and embrace their inner strength. In addition to my clinical work, I’ve had the privilege of partnering with diverse organizations—ranging from colleges and universities to companies like HelloFresh and sevenrooms—to deliver impactful speaking engagements.

I collaborate closely with each organization to tailor presentations that align with their goals, ensuring that every session resonates with the audience. My approach is all about creating an engaging and relatable atmosphere, where attendees leave with fresh perspectives, meaningful conversations, and practical tools to apply in their daily lives. Whether through workshops, panels, or guest lectures, my aim is to inspire women to take control of their mental well-being and live the life they truly want.

AUTHENTIC, ENGAGING, IMPACTFUL

When it comes to speaking engagements, my focus is on creating an environment where authentic, relatable conversations can flourish. When speaking, I believe that true growth happens when we connect on a personal level. One that fosters open and honest discussions that leave a lasting impact. I’m committed to understanding the unique needs of your organization, creating content that aligns with your goals, and delivering presentations that inspire genuine change. This way your attendees leave feeling empowered, motivated, and ready to take on the world.

By partnering with organizations, I strive to continue empowering members of the organization to harness their inner strength, overcome challenges, and live fulfilling lives. Whether it’s exploring the importance of self-care, navigating work-life balance, or addressing mental health concerns, I am dedicated to providing a speaking experience that makes a positive, lasting impact on your organization. Each presentation is crafted to not only educate but also to inspire actionable change, ensuring that the insights gained extend well beyond the event.

MY APPROACH:

THE IMPACT OF TAILORED PRESENTATIONS

In every organization, the needs and challenges of the community are unique. That’s why each speaking engagement is thoughtfully designed to address what truly matters to your audience. My goal is to create more than just a presentation—I want to create an experience that resonates with attendees, sparks meaningful conversations, and leaves a lasting impression. 

What You Can Expect:

  • How It Matters to Your Group: When the content matches your organization's goals, the presentation becomes more than just relevant—it hits home. Your audience will connect with the topics and see how they apply to both their work and everyday lives.

  • Engagement and Connection: I design these sessions to be more of a chat than a lecture. My goal is to create an atmosphere where everyone feels involved and connected, making the experience fun and unforgettable.

  • Hands-On Takeaways: Attendees won't just leave with fresh ideas—they'll be armed with practical tools and strategies they can use immediately. I aim to deliver actionable insights that spark change and inspire your audience to take control of their mental well-being.

  • Long-Term Value: Tackle the core issues that matter to your community, and these presentations become goldmines of lasting value. The insights you'll gain will keep fueling your growth and development long after the session wraps up.

Together, we explore effective strategies for managing stress, anxiety, and prioritizing self-care in a world that often feels overwhelming. The goal is to equip attendees with the tools they need to maintain their mental health and thrive.



My presentations aim to empower members of your organization by supporting their personal and professional growth and tackling the unique challenges they face today. Whether they are in college navigating the stress of exams, recently graduated and starting their careers, or established professionals looking to balance work and personal life, my talks are designed to resonate with all levels. Additionally, we can customize a presentation to meet their specific goals and topics, ensuring it aligns perfectly with their needs. Here’s a glimpse of what I cover:
