Forgiveness is not about telling the other person that what they did was ok. It is everything about allowing yourself to heal. We will explore together what this means to you and learn what forgiveness means to you and how it might serve you moving forward.
Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC
I approach forgiveness as a central aspect of healing, drawing upon psychological insights and Christian teachings. Recognizing forgiveness as a transformative and freeing process, I integrate biblical principles on forgiveness, love, and grace into therapy sessions. Emphasizing the example of Christ's forgiveness, I encourage clients to explore their faith and find strength in extending forgiveness to others and themselves. The therapeutic process may involve prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on the importance of forgiveness in the Christian journey. I guide individuals in understanding the relational and emotional benefits of forgiveness while addressing any barriers that may hinder the process. This integrative approach seeks to help clients navigate the complexities of forgiveness, fostering emotional healing and reconciliation within the framework of their Christian beliefs.

Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
It is so easy to hold on to anger, resentment, self-criticism, rage, guilt, shame, and negative views of ourselves and others, yet all the research suggests that letting go and engaging in forgiveness is the healthiest solution for the one who forgives. It is hard to learn to forgive the self and others, but I believe we are all capable of working through that which keeps us stuck in the painful feelings and moving to a place of forgiveness.

For clients looking for therapy to help them forgive someone they are close to or who hope that someone will forgive them, I provide humanistic, positive, client-centered therapy. This approach allows you to explore feelings without judgment, contemplate the next steps in a safe space, and learn how to overcome painful feelings. Even if you are not in contact with the person you want to forgive or receive forgiveness from, we can use our sessions to help you find resolution and comfort.

Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
When chosen, forgiveness can be a powerful gift of freedom for yourself. But it is important to remember that forgiveness is not the same as forgetting or condoning harmful experiences. Forgiveness is not required or even recommended for all, but it can be a way to live life on your terms. Compassion for yourself and having experienced your pain is a starting place, and I'm here to support you along your journey.
