Forgiveness
Dr. David Shapiro
Psychologist, California Licensed Psychologist (License# PSY17495)
Forgiveness is quite frequently a component of the clinical work that I do. One guiding idea I share with my clients is that often it is more beneficial to forgive for the person forgiving than for the person being forgiven. An important distinction though is not to push people to forgive prematurely in such a way that it invalidates their feelings and concerns. Rather, I view forgiveness as something that can grow out of working through one's hurts. One important concept that my clients tend to find useful is compassion, not just for the other party, but for oneself as well.

Crystal Taylor - Soulful Hearts In Nature
Life Coach, RSMT
All the major spiritual traditions as well as scientific studies site forgiveness as a main key to a happy and fulfilling life. Holding onto grudges, anger, guilt, shame, etc towards others but also towards ourselves can be like dragging around a heavy anchor that constantly weighs us down and keeps us from having a more open loving heart and enjoying life. For highly sensitive people, this lack of forgiveness can often have an even more dramatic effect and in some cases can even lead to health issues as well. Together we will work through a process of forgiveness that will bring you much more freedom using a unique multi-modal approach.

Elaine Quattro
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Psychotherapy is treatment for the soul which is made up of free will, reasoning mind, feelings and emotions. You are the expert of your own experiences and hurt often leads to unforgiveness. The psychotherapist is an expert on process as well as relationship dynamics, belief systems and defense mechanisms. In each session, the client shares whatever is on their mind and the therapist helps through this exploration to bring insight, provide support, understanding and tools. Together the client and the therapist identify and look at unforgiveness toward oneself and others with a clear plan of action that is in line with your beliefs.
