Thinking of therapy? Ask us for the first session free, for a limited time. IPG has roughly 30 therapists over three NJ offices: Highland Park, Freehold, and Jersey City. Since 1983 we've combined compassionate care with high-level expertise. We provide individual, family, child, and relationship counseling for concerns ranging from depression to life transitions to marital strife. We have a special focus on the LGBTQ community, including transgender/GNC youth, but we see clients from all walks of life. We also have many other niche specialties such as sex therapy, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, and eating disorders.
IPG's large, diverse staff has a wide range of expertise in different modalities, from CBT to psychodynamic, EMDR, and EFT. We have many sex therapists working with everyone from couples to those involved in the BDSM or consensual non-monogamy communities. We also have multiple therapists trained in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy., an exciting new modality.
No matter what your concern, or what approach is indicated, we can pair you with a therapist who can help. We're available for you throughout the week, and we can work with most financial and insurance situations. And our staff stays trained in the latest modalities so we can match you with a therapist with the special skills to address your unique concerns.
