Counseling
JFS is a leader in providing therapy and specializes in serving people impacted by trauma. Our approach centers on building a strong, trusting relationship with a therapist to foster meaningful and lasting improvements. Counseling effectively enhances life quality by teaching stress management, resolving personal issues, and modifying behaviors. We offer counseling services in our offices in Atlantic City, Margate, and Cape May Courthouse. Additionally, in appropriate circumstances, we can provide counseling in-home or via telehealth.

We offer cutting-edge, evidence-based interventions to youth by a team of highly-trained specialists. Our therapists recognize that children and adolescents frequently express their need for additional support not through direct communication, but rather declining academic performance, outbursts, and diminished self-assurance. Therapists provide coping skills that can alleviate depression, anxiety and stress that can be caused by situations such as bullying, divorce and trauma exposure. Our mission is to empower children, adolescents, and their families with the essential tools to unlock their full potential and thrive as their best selves.
JFS’ high-skilled therapists in Cape May County provide children and their families services to successfully manage emotional and behaviors related to trauma exposure. Using Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy & Parent Management Training, we address abuse, neglect, sexual abuse, and exposure to domestic violence.
