IPG PAVED THE WAY for other gay affirmative therapists - we started in 1983 specifically to provide therapy to the gay and lesbian community, back when most practitioners thought it was a mental illness. We're still trailblazers: we work with transgender people, bisexuals/pansexuals, kinky people, couples who practice consensual nonmonogamy, and others who make up the "Q" in LGBTQ. You may not want therapy BECAUSE you are gay, but you definitely want a therapist who is not only affirming but knowledgeable. We understand the special issues of LGBTQ individuals, couples, and families, and we provide sex therapy as well.
Our therapists have written papers and books on queer issues and affirmative therapy. We've developed special techniques for working with same sex couples and addressing the unique aspects of same sex sexuality. We are equipped to help with virtually every problem you may face as a 'queer' person.
Among the modalities we've trained in and adapted for the LGBTQ community: CBT,DBT, EMDR, Imago couples counseling, Emotionally Focused Therapy for relationships, and sex therapy. We have three offices, in Highland Park, Jersey City and Freehold NJ, so we are convenient to reach from many locations in NJ
