Forgiveness
Somatic Healing Arts, Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
Forgiveness is a process that affects both the mind and the body, often carrying tension, resistance, or emotional heaviness. Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy engage both body and mind, helping individuals explore and release difficult emotions, cultivate empathy and understanding, and move toward a sense of emotional freedom, healing, and inner peace.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are wrestling with forgiveness, you may feel torn between wanting peace and still carrying hurt. You might replay what happened, struggle with anger, or feel pressured by others to “just move on.” Forgiveness can feel confusing, especially if the wound was deep or trust was broken.
At Selah Counselling, we approach forgiveness with honesty and care. We do not rush the process or minimize the pain. Forgiveness is not pretending something did not happen, and it is not the same as reconciliation or removing healthy boundaries. Together, we explore the impact of the hurt, strengthen emotional regulation, and help you process grief and anger safely. Over time, forgiveness can release what no longer serves you, freeing you from carrying what was never yours to hold forever. The goal is clarity, strength, and peace that grows from truth rather than pressure.

Struggling to forgive is rarely overcome by forcing yourself to "forgive and forget." Together we can process what's happened and the emotions the event has left you with. Though we cannot change the past, we can change how we feel about the past. Together we can work towards such change with patience, expertise, and self-acceptance.

Nicklas Ehrlich
Counsellor/Therapist, MSW, RCC (#0843), RSW (#11561), Psychotherapist, Counsellor, Life-Coach, Hypnotherapist, Advanced Neurofeedback Trainer
Forgive the person and not the behaviour while still having healthy boundaries and not allowing abuse to continue. When people violate in various ways they are acting from their unconscious wounds and anxieties and are not healthy to be around. Lack of forgiveness negatively affects your health.

Ekta Abhay Lather
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Forgiveness is a conscious decision to let go of resentment, anger, or the desire for revenge towards someone who has caused harm or pain. It is often seen as a compassionate act that can lead to emotional healing and personal growth, benefiting both the forgiver and the forgiven. While forgiveness does not necessarily mean forgetting or excusing the wrongdoing, it allows individuals to release the emotional burden associated with holding onto negative feelings. This process can improve mental health, foster inner peace, and promote healthier relationships. Forgiveness is a journey that may take time and requires introspection, empathy, and sometimes professional support. Ultimately, embracing forgiveness can pave the way for a more positive outlook on life and encourage deeper connections with others.

Nina Hopmeier
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC)
Forgiving someone who has hurt us can be challenging sometimes especially when we don’t have adequate tools to first process our pain. One of the ways we will be working together is to explore what forgiveness means to you as the term is unique to each client. Forgiving goes beyond acceptance. In order to help you develop tools for forgiveness I can help you better understand what factors are blocking you from your ability to forgive. Once people process their pain and eventually feel capable of forgiving, they are often able to let go of past hardships, which helps them view their future through a more hopeful and optimistic lens. If you are someone struggling with forgiveness, feel free to contact me. It is never too late to make a change.

Sagewood Counselling & Consultancy
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
Forgiveness is a way for us to release ourselves and others so that we can find freedom from poor choices, disappointments, pain and / or abuse that we have endured. Being able to forgive ourselves or others does not mean that we condone what has happened, but it does mean we don't have to be attached to it and the blame and shame cycles any longer.

David McAlinden
Pre-Licensed Professional, MACP Candidate, Yorkville University
Forgiveness can be complicated, especially when hurt, resentment, disappointment, or guilt have been carried for a long time. Sometimes forgiveness is connected to other people, while other times it involves learning how to let go of anger toward yourself, make peace with the past, or move forward from experiences that still feel emotionally heavy.
I provide a supportive, non-judgmental space where we can explore these experiences openly and honestly, without pressure to “just move on” before you’re ready. Together, we can work toward understanding, healing, and finding a way forward that feels genuine and meaningful to you.

Mr. Paul Bains
Therapist, B.Sc., M.A., RCC
Forgiveness is a hard decision for some to make. There are many questions, such as: Should I forgive someone who has hurt me? Why would I want to forgive? I am too angry to forgive, and I don't think what someone did to me is forgivable. Forgiveness is a choice; indeed, one does not have to forgive. However, there is a great benefit to you to going through a process of forgiveness that can open you up to a fuller way of living your life. Forgiveness can bring peace, calm and happiness. Call now to see how forgiveness can change your life.

Headway Mental Health
Registered Psychotherapist, Joshua Dvorkin, MPsy, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying),
As a compassionate therapist, I specialize in helping individuals navigate the complex and transformative journey of forgiveness. Drawing from my own personal experiences and professional training, I understand the profound impact that holding onto resentment, anger, and hurt can have on one's emotional well-being and relationships. I believe that forgiveness is a powerful tool for healing and growth, allowing individuals to break free from the chains of pain and find inner peace. In our sessions, I create a safe and non-judgmental space where we can explore the deep-rooted emotions and beliefs that may be preventing you from embracing forgiveness. Together, we will work towards understanding the underlying reasons behind your pain and examine how forgiveness can bring about profound healing and liberation. Utilizing various evidence-based therapeutic approaches, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and mindfulness techniques, I will guide you in developing strategies to let go of resentment and cultivate compassion for yourself and others. Through this transformative process, you will gain a deeper understanding of forgiveness as a personal choice and empower yourself to heal, rebuild trust, and foster healthier relationships. My mission is to support you on your journey towards forgiveness, helping you find the strength, resilience, and inner peace necessary to create a more fulfilling and authentic life.

Ida Uzelman
Counsellor/Therapist, MPCC-P, RTC
Forgiveness doesn’t mean that the abuse, hurt, or wrongdoing was okay—it means you choose not to let it hold you back. I provide a safe and compassionate space to process past pain, release anger and resentment, and reclaim your emotional freedom. Together, we work toward self-compassion, inner peace, and the ability to move forward without being defined or limited by past experiences.

Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
There is a lot of talk about forgiveness these days. A popular notion is that we must forgive if we want to move forward but I find this a little confusing? I think to forgive oneself is important. Mega important. To understand why we do the things we do - and why someone else did to us what they did to us - is also important. But... Is it really up to us to judge and forgive someone else for their actions? Do we have that responsibility? We can hear their apology if one is forthcoming. But our responsibility is to ourselves (and to our young children). I believe we are free to choose how we wish to move forward and create our life from this moment. We are each of us, as adults, responsible for our own actions. People who have hurt us in some way are responsible for themselves. If forgiving is important to us, we can explore that. However Dr Rosenberg said that in order to be happy we must get to know ourselves, understand our needs and arrange our lives so that those needs are met. Our loved ones will naturally benefit from our happiness. (Of course we should never hurt anyone physically either, other than in self defence.)

Roger Thiessen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CCC, MPS, M.Div
Forgiveness is primarily for our benefit, as opposed to being for the sake of someone that has harmed us - unforgiveness keeps us locked in an internal prison of anger and resentment, which can leak out to the ones we love. We seldom forgive once-and-for-all; rather, it can be helpful to think of forgiveness as a practice to engage in whenever we are triggered by a hurtful memory, freeing us from the tyranny of the past.
