Forgiveness therapists in Willimantic, Connecticut CT
Debra Nelson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Forgiveness is not a destination, but a place to visit and spend time. When people are betrayed either by a friend, family member, romantic partner, or co-worker, the hurt is profound. Sometimes, as with someone who has passed, there is no opportunity to gain closure. Forgiveness work is about exploring your feelings, but also learning skills you can use to work through the pain and get to a place of acceptance.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist, my approach to treating forgiveness is grounded in understanding its profound impact on mental health and well-being. Through evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), compassion-focused therapy (CFT), and narrative therapy, I guide individuals in exploring the complex emotions and beliefs surrounding forgiveness. By facilitating a process of self-reflection, empathy-building, and perspective-taking, I help clients cultivate compassion for themselves and others involved in the situation. Additionally, I assist individuals in setting boundaries, practicing assertiveness, and letting go of resentment to promote healing and release emotional burdens. My goal is to empower individuals to embrace forgiveness as a transformative process that fosters personal growth, resilience, and inner peace.

Together, we gently navigate the pain of past hurts, betrayal, and disappointment. My approach aims to guide clients towards releasing the burdens of resentment and anger, unlocking a path to healing and inner peace. It’s a transformative process, fostering self-compassion and the strength to forgive others, and perhaps most importantly, oneself. This journey is about rekindling a sense of freedom and lightness, opening the heart to the possibilities of renewed connections and a future unshackled from the past.
