About
Jack Foley, MA, LMFT, is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California (License No. 139721) and co-founder of Bodhi Wellness Collective in Hermosa Beach. He earned his Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University Los Angeles and has spent more than a decade in behavioral health.
Jack works with adults, young adults, teens, and couples navigating addiction and recovery, anxiety, depression, trauma, and psychosis, along with the families supporting them. As a Christian, he offers faith-integrated therapy for clients who want their faith to be part of the work. That can include prayer, Scripture, and conversations about meaning, purpose, and calling, always at the client’s invitation and alongside evidence-based care such as CBT, ACT, and trauma-informed therapy. Faith and clinical care are not in competition here. They belong in the same room.
Bodhi Wellness Collective brings therapy, psychiatry, EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, and psychological testing together under one coordinated team. Jack’s clients can draw on that whole team without carrying their care between separate offices.
Sessions are available in person at 2200 Pacific Coast Highway, Suite 308, Hermosa Beach, serving Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach, Torrance, and Palos Verdes, and online anywhere in California. A free 15-minute consultation is available at (310) 818-3630 or www.bodhiwellnesscollective.com.
My Christian Faith and My Professional Practice
My faith is the foundation for why I do this work. I believe every person carries dignity and worth, and that no one is beyond hope, including people in the middle of addiction, mental illness, or a family crisis. That conviction shapes how I sit with clients: with patience, honesty, and grace.
In session, faith is something we bring in at your invitation, never something I impose. For Christian clients who want it, that can mean praying together, drawing on Scripture, or talking through where God fits in what you are facing. For others, it stays in the background as part of who I am. Either way, the work is grounded in sound clinical practice and the ethical standards of my license.
I don’t see faith and therapy as competing. Many of the people I work with are supported by a church community and benefit from clinical care at the same time, and I’m glad to coordinate with pastors and ministry leaders when a client wants that. My goal is to help people heal in a way that honors both their mental health and their faith.
