My name is Jivanda Martin MA, LPC, CPCS, CAMSII. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Georgia. I have over 24 years of experience in the mental health field. I have certifications in anger management and Supervision. I have training and expertise related to trauma focused therapy, grief counseling, substance abuse and Parenting. I have had the enjoyed working with adults, youth and families who have had difficulties with life's stressors dealing with relationships, trauma, addiction, depression, anxiety and other concerns. The therapeutic modality I use the most is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy because this approach helps you to able to change your narrative by changing negative thought processes into positive ones. This means you have the power to change your perspective simply by making a decision. When is comes to relationships communication is key and understanding is necessary. In couples counseling it is my Job to help each person be heard and to help each person be understood. The key is acceptance, acceptance is a choice. I would like to assist you in sorting through "the stuff" and choosing wisely because our behaviors impact others.

Jivanda shows she’s knowledgeable and professional in this field, which makes me so happy that we got lucky enough to get her. Only into our second session with her, we have already accomplished so much, with better understanding. The communication between my partner and I, with Jivanda has been very successful and I can tell she strives for understanding between the both of us. Looking forward to our next session.

Jivanda does a great job at translating my feelings into words that my husband understands. She makes you feel heard. When we have our sessions it’s like I am talking to one of the girls. I really appreciate that it’s not awkward with her at all. She didn’t take sides and will help you see things from a positive perspective. I’ve really enjoyed my time with her.
