Forgiveness
Restore Life Counseling Service, LLC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Forgiveness means I carry no more resentment. It doesn’t mean I tolerate what happened. Studies have shown that forgiveness can result in huge health benefits like reducing the risk of heart attack, improving cholesterol levels, increasing quality of sleep, reducing pain, lowering blood pressure, and reducing levels of anxiety, depression and stress. With that in mind, even if you aren’t ready for this yet, the mental and physical health benefits alone make forgiveness worth considering.

Michelle Bloom, PsyD
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.

Dawn Nelson
Counselor/Therapist, LCSW-S, ACSW, SAP, CART
People struggle with forgiveness because it creates mixed emotions. I offer clients the ability to work through the feelings that accompany the issues by acting as an objective, non-judgmental sounding board. I recognize there is a desire to forgive yet also not be taken advantage of in the future.

Dr. Jacqueline Bentley
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Forgiveness is easier said than done. It can be difficult to forgive someone you has hurt you badly. I would strive to help you come to some sense of peace towards a person or situation that you cannot control. I would help you learn to forgive for the sake of your own mental health and moving forward in your own life in a healthier way.

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.
