Roberta Gelfand , LCSW

Roberta Gelfand is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New Jersey with five years of clinical experience helping people navigate change and challenging life circumstances. As an LCSW, she is trained to provide psychotherapy and support for a range of emotional and behavioral concerns. She has worked with clients managing depression, anxiety and other mood disorders, ADHD, trauma, relationship and parenting difficulties, career transitions, and major life changes, among other issues.

Her therapeutic manner blends empathy and genuineness with a mindful, client-centered focus, while remaining direct and straightforward when guidance is needed. She creates a warm environment where clients can explore sensitive topics and identify the thoughts and behaviors that may be keeping them from living the life they want. Roberta draws on multiple treatment modalities, including cognitive-behavioral, trauma-informed, solution-focused, and psychodynamic approaches, and she adapts interventions to each person’s needs.

Working together, she helps clients set meaningful goals, address obstacles, and build greater self-awareness and self-compassion. Roberta views prioritizing mental health as an investment in oneself and recognizes the courage it takes to begin therapy. She is committed to supporting clients through their healing and growth and looks forward to helping them move toward more fulfilling lives.
