Forgiveness
Dr. Mitchell Roth
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, JD, PsyD, LMHC
Forgiveness is necessary, but empty in the absence of prior condemnation. We need to forgive, but often need assistance in first fully feeling the hurts that require forgiveness. Holding onto resentment is like drinking the poison and expecting the other person to die.

Forgiveness
Hadyn Jolly
Counselor/Therapist, MAC, APC
Forgiveness can be hard to reach, but it is a noble and worthy goal to strive for. Ultimately, it is a choice. We can work through the ways that you have been wronged and validate your pain so that you can understand how those hurts have impacted you. Building that awareness and experiencing those emotions can help you heal and move forward, and I would be honored to be able to support you and care for you in that journey.

Athens is home to the University of Georgia and has cultivated a reputation as one of the South's most vibrant college cities, with a legendary music scene—birthplace of R.E.M. and the B-52s—a strong arts community, and a progressive political culture that contrasts with the surrounding rural Georgia context, producing a city with a well-developed and diverse therapy landscape relative to its size. UGA's Counseling and Psychiatric Services (CAPS) is the primary mental health resource for the city's enormous student population, and a well-developed private therapy sector serves the broader community including university staff, the arts and music community, and permanent residents. The sharp economic inequality between the university and creative communities and the city's lower-income and Black neighborhoods is an important dimension of the mental health landscape, and therapists in Athens work across a wide range of economic and cultural contexts. Common therapy concerns include student mental health, creative community stress, identity and LGBTQ+ issues, racial equity, and the challenges of a city where prosperity and poverty exist in close proximity.
