Clinical Staff
Dr. Jan Roberts, LCSW
Dr. Jan Roberts, LCSW is an internationally-recognized speaker, clinician and educator who has combined years of experience working with patients to help them identify and remove unhelpful patterns in their lives.
Dr. Roberts is the Founder and former-CEO of Partners in Health and Wellbeing, one of the largest therapeutic practices in the mid-Atlantic region. A graduate of NYU, Dr. Roberts continues to give back by sharing her expertise through teaching graduate students at NYU. Dr. Roberts is a highly sought after instructor whose passion for teaching serves to help her students become the most empowered clinical social work students they can be. Dr. Roberts teaches Cognitive Behavioral Interventions, Human Development, and Psychopathology.
For her clinical work, Dr. Roberts has worked collaboratively with her patients to uncover and address the issues that keep patients from knowing their power and keeps them stuck in unfulfilling relationships, careers, or with their finances. Dr. Roberts has gained knowledge through her studies of psychology, neuroscience, philosophy, and sociology. Her interdisciplinary approach has led to great success for her patients. Her goal is to empower every patient and help them find the freedom from negative patterns that patients have unconsciously used and that keeps them separate from their own wisdom, strength, and creativity.
Dr. Roberts' passion for an interdisciplinary approach has lead her to combine aspects of evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, and Jungian insight-oriented therapy to create an exciting NEW cognitive behavioral intervention called, Insight-oriented Cognitive and Behavioral Transformational Therapy™ (ICBTT). In addition to ICBTT, Dr. Roberts helps patients identify their own internal and external roadblocks to their own fulfillment and to create a unique one-of-a-kind wellness plan that has proven benefits.
Of interest, Dr. Roberts is heavily involved with research and education on complementary treatments in mental health including cannabinoids. In 2017, Dr. Roberts founded the International Research Center on Cannabis and Health, a community-based research center based out of NYC which focuses on providing objective research on how cannabinoids (CBD, CBN, CBG, THC and over 100 other cannabinoids) may impact mood-regulation and psychotherapy. As an extension of her groundbreaking work, Dr. Roberts has been the shaping force of The Cannabinoid Institute, a groundbreaking educational program that certifies physicians, nurses, pharmacists and mental health providers with standards-based, educational content around medical cannabis and its therapeutic impact. In addition, she is the faculty advisor for the NYU CannaHealth Group.
