Psychotherapy and Relationship Therapy serving the Roswell area

Through Psychotherapy, couples can learn how to better understand each other’s needs and develop healthy communication techniques.

Experiencing chronic sadness, fear, feeling empty, lonely, and insecure can easily lead to depression and other mental health issues. There is no doubt that right now many individuals are impacted by various stressors that have impacted their mental health. You are not meant to go through it alone. It’s imperative that you get the right professional help for your mental health or if your relationship is suffering at this time.  Pain is a precursor for a change! Pain makes us face our reality!

Depression, anger, stress, loneliness, anxiety and not being happy in your relationship – are painful experiences that lead you to get help. Chances are you have experienced one or more of these conditions. You don’t have to face these alone. We are designed to grow, recover and heal in relationships. Don’t stay stuck in your thoughts alone and don’t face your difficulties alone. Get the right help.

Remember when you take care of yourself by looking inside and going through Psychotherapy, you could thrive in your relationships, in your work, and in your life.

Happy relationships are meant to be nurturing. If you are currently struggling in a relationship, get help. Don’t wait. The longer you wait, the more complicated it will be. When we feel any of these emotions such as; feeling depressed, despair, angry or grief, many feel broken, deeply hurt, and hopeless. Perhaps you are not aware of how anxious you feel, and how that impacts various aspects of your life and your relationships.  Self-care is an important component of facing any of these issues. Please do not put this off, practicing healthy self-care is non-negotiable when you might be barely keeping your head above water. It’s important to find a place where you can experience this. The process of effective family and marriage counseling is about helping you to move toward feeling restored, so that you can feel more like yourself to enjoy your life, and experience healthier relationships. Everyone from time to time has had life experiences that have been confusing, painful, or challenging. Life is difficult. You are the one person who can make the changes necessary in your relationships that would lead to a healthy and meaningful place in life.

As humans, we are not designed to live life nor process our stories alone in isolation, but we are supposed to be with someone whom we can connect with.

Therapy For Women:
Women often struggle with self-criticism, self-doubt, and feeling inadequate. While this is very sad and women often suffer in these ways, they may have not taken the time to reflect on the root of these thoughts, which leads to these misleading negative feelings. Our early life experiences create a blue print that has a lifetime impact. The good news is that you can change it as an adult. I often hear from many women such as: “I don’t feel like I matter” “I don’t have a voice in the relationship and don’t know what to do” or women say “What’s wrong with me?” “I don’t feel seen in my relationship” “I don’t know how to deal with my husband’s addiction?” They see themselves as the problem. Similar thoughts and feelings that have been going on for a long time, tend to lead to depression, anxiety, overall feeling unhappy and feeling stuck. Do you identify with any of these?

Married or Single – a change in one person can lead to a change in the relationship

• Are you still dealing with some unresolved pain or issue from the past or your family of origin?
• Are you ready to turn your relationship in the right direction, but don’t know how?
• Do you feel anxious and stuck because it’s impacting your relationship and your overall well being?
• Is something from your past interfering with your present relationships?
• Do you have difficulty saying no?
• Are you tired of that addiction or addictive behavior in your life?
• Did you get into the relationship too quickly and you keep having arguments and don’t know how to move forward?
• Do you know how to have difficult conversations that is not detrimental to your relationship?

Ms. Savra helps men and women addressing difficult issues in their relationships during the process of their individual therapy. Sometimes it’s the first time they can uncover and heal from any unresolved issues that may be standing in the way of creating positive and healthy changes in their lives or relationships.

One of the most important tasks women have is to learn to value themselves. Learning and taking the time to look at your uncomfortable feelings and experiences, and understanding your pain, is the key to your overall wellness. Women can’t do this alone, actually you are not meant to go through this alone! You must find the right therapist who knows how to help you with this, who can help you to grow and heal as you feel confused and betrayed in your marriage.

Therapy For Men:
Only if men could talk! Our culture teaches men to isolate when they are in pain. In particular, in today’s culture with the power of social media and confusing messages, men are more confused than ever. Men numb their distress and negative feelings with different types of activities, distractions, and addictive behaviors.  They are lead to be misunderstood in their marriages and lives. Fortunately, there is a better solution for them. Men too have needs, but rarely anyone helped them to know how to address them in healthy ways. So many men suffer quietly in shame. As a therapist, I see it in my counseling sessions frequently. The good news is that there is much hope, there is a way to come out of shame and heal, grow, and live to their full potentials.

Moreover, they long to hear that their fathers are proud of them, feeling important and visible to their dads. When a boy becomes an adult man, and enters into an intimate relationship, his significant other expects him to be a sensitive communicator, and express his feelings, and he has yet to have figured out for himself what that means. These experiences may lead men feeling at a loss to meet expectations as they communicate, leading to feelings of inadequacy, frustration, and anger. The process of individual therapy can help men get clarity for themselves in identifying their true emotions, look at their value system, reflecting on who they are as men, and learn how to effectively communicate in his relationships and connect with his wife. The journey of individual therapy can also create feelings of self-empowerment, enabling men to becoming authentic as men, and have deeper connections with his loved ones.
