Institute For Personal Growth

The Institute for Personal Growth (IPG) has been a leading provider of expert, compassionate psychotherapy and counseling since 1983. Our highly skilled professionals can help you, whether your concerns are the result of temporary life stresses or the symptoms of deeper problems. With offices in Jersey City, Highland Park, and Freehold, IPG has roughly thirty psychotherapists that offer a wide range of services, including individual, child, family, marriage, and couples counseling. We also provide special therapy techniques such as EMDR, play therapy, and sex therapy.

Our therapists have over 400 years of combined experience and specialize in various areas like depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationships. We are internationally known experts on LGBTQ issues and the largest provider of AASECT-certified sex therapy services in the tri-state region. We also have a cutting-edge program for transgender and gender non-conforming youth.

We understand that seeking therapy can be a significant step, and that's why we offer a free first session to help you get started. Our services are available online or in-person, and we offer flexible times, including evenings and weekends. While we are not in network with insurance companies, we do work with many insurance plans and can help you check your plan's benefits when you call.

At IPG, we are committed to providing a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment for our clients. We believe that everyone deserves access to quality mental health services, and we strive to make our services as accessible as possible. If you're considering therapy, we encourage you to reach out to us to learn more about how we can help you.
