Robert Jenkins, LCSW

Couples, Family & Individual Therapy · In-Person & Online Telehealth across New Jersey

Compassionate, evidence-based therapy for individuals, couples, and families — working through high-conflict relationships, infidelity recovery, parenting challenges, anxiety, and depression.

How Robert Helps

Robert helps individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s most difficult challenges — from high-conflict relationships and infidelity recovery to blended family dynamics and the everyday strain of anxiety, depression, and stress.

He works with couples on communication breakdown, intimacy concerns, and recurring conflict patterns, tailoring his approach to what each relationship needs. He also supports neurodiverse couples navigating ADHD-related dynamics, and provides guidance for parents adjusting to new family structures or the everyday challenges of raising children at any age.

For individuals, Robert helps clients build healthier coping strategies for anxiety, depression, anger, and stress, and works to strengthen self-esteem and confidence. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Clinical Supervisor, Robert is committed to creating an inclusive, affirming space for all clients — including LGBTQIA+ individuals, multicultural families, and neurodiverse couples — tailoring his approach to honor each person’s unique background and experience.

A Bit About Me

Outside of session, Robert enjoys cooking, reading, and expanding his wine collection, and he’s always planning his next trip. He’s also into music — most recently building out a new turntable setup — and, as an animal lover, he’s never far from his dog. That same warmth and patience shows up in his work with clients: he believes people already have what they need to create change, and his role is to help them find it, in a space that feels safe, human, and free of judgment.
