Family Therapy
it is a space to explore the power & control dynamics, intergenerational trauma, roles and equations within a family and how it affects your sense of self as well as the family unit at large. The goal is to re-align and re-configure certain structures of the family which no longer are relevant and need revision. The hope is for the family to find a new normal which is more functional and harmonious for each member as well! The sessions could be a combination of individual sessions with each family member and group sessions. Group sessions will have ground rules to keep the dignity and respect of each member and the family intact. Each session will be of 50 minutes and will be held online only. Sessions may include psycho-education and discussion of home-works to be done during the gap between two sessions.
Couple Therapy
this space focusses on the relational aspects of the partnership and co-regulation between partners. The strengths/weaknesses, needs, attachment patterns, conflicts and resolutions, communication styles and boundary of the relationship will be assessed and understood. The goal is to help the partners decide the best course of action for the wellbeing of the relationship- turning towards or away from each other and how. Thus, we support with marital, pre marital and relationship counselling as well as amicable separation at any stage. The first session mandatorily is about collecting the individual narratives of both the partners after which we keep a joint session. Joint sessions will have ground rules to be maintained in order for the dignity and respect of partners and their relationship to be intact. Each session will be of 50 minutes and will be held online only. Sessions may include psycho-education and discussion of home- works to be done during the gap between two sessions.
Gift of Therapy
"Counselling is too expensive."
"Therapy is for the privileged. It is a luxury."
Online mode of therapy has made counselling services accessible, however, a common complaint around its affordability is still unaddressed. Here's a little something for you- Sneh Therapy wants to truly cater to all the therapy seekers out there without them having to shy away or shrink. 'Gift of Therapy' is an initiative wherein clients will receive a Pro-Bono session (free first session) followed by low cost sessions (INR 500/session). The sessions will be conducted by a trainee Psychologist at Sneh Therapy under the direct guidance and supervision of the Founder & Psychotherapist- Snehal Saraf.
Support Group
Empowered Empaths
Narcissism is a hidden pandemic in rise! Narcissistic Abuse can only be understood when experienced- Due to the manipulative nature of narcissistic abuse, therapists may also miss the mark. Therapists often suggest bettering communication patterns; managing anxiety and healing attachment styles to clients who report feeling confused, inadequate, invalidated, “on a roller coaster of emotions” and lack of ‘genuine’ affection in their relationships. However these clients could be undergoing Narcissistic Abuse. This group is for Empaths who tend to get caught up in a make-believe world of a Narcissist much like a moth to the flame and endure what is known as Narcissistic Abuse! This Support Group endeavours to shed light on Narcissism and let the Survivors know that we Believe You! You are NOT crazy! It is NOT your fault! Your Empathy is to be Empowered NOT Exploited! Since Narcissistic Abuse is very isolating and confusing, healing will automatically happen when all empaths will come together and receive answers which will help them validate and make meaning of their experiences! The group hopes to foster Radical Acceptance of what is, so that the Empaths take charge of their lives & Reclaim their Identity. The Support group also intends to actively psycho-educate/share resources and open the space for everyone to share coping techniques in order for the participants to start/continue their respective Healing Journey(s).”
As a group, it will be our responsibility to uphold certain ethics:
A. Respect for all members no matter where they are, ahead or behind you in their healing journey. Everyone’s trajectory can look different even when moving towards the same direction.
B. The essence of this group is in the presence of each member and the exchange of support amongst each other. Thus, we owe it to the group to know of your absence from scheduled sessions in advance.
C. The sacredness of this group lies in how safe and judgement free one feels. The confidentiality of detail shared in the group is of utmost priority.
D. Commitment to yourself to take full space without shrinking while also make space for others to do the same!"
​
The group will be facilitated by Snehal Saraf, Psychotherapist and Founder of Sneh Therapy. She is specialised in Couple & Family Therapy + Healing Childhood Trauma/Attachment Styles and Narcissistic Abuse impacts. The group will have 8-10 members and they will meet online once a month for a span of 1.5-2 hours. The fee per meeting will be INR 550.
