We are a mental health clinic that takes an educational approach to therapy, serving the community and providing clinical supervision while validating the human experience. We value connecting with the community and believe that quality mental health care and supervision should be educational and affordable. Everyone, from every community should have access to evidenced based treatment and supervision in a safe, compassionate and educational environment. A Freeman’s Place Counseling strives to accomplish this with every person, from the initial phone call to the first meeting with a therapist and supervisor. We are here for you, the community.

We believe that living a healthy life does not only include taking care of your physical body. Taking the time to invest in your mental and emotional health can lead to personal growth, great change, and a new perspective on life. Our goal is to assist clients with restoring their mental and emotional well-being to function as healthy individuals for themselves, their relationships, their families, and their communities.

We offer:

• Individual counseling, family counseling, group counseling, and medication management in the outpatient setting.
• Intensive in Community (IIC) services with children and families through the New Jersey Children System of Care (CSOC) where we provide individual and family counseling in the home setting.
