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.

Vilma Madramootoo
Registered Psychotherapist, Holistic Health Practitioner, Certified Health, Wellness and Life Coach
I help you break down the barriers of Forgiveness by offering focused-based techniques. Forgiveness means different things to different people. Sometimes it's a decision of "letting go" of toxic feelings that keep you stuck or trapped with an unpleasant experience or person. Forgiveness doesn't mean forgetting or excusing the harm done to you or making up with the person who caused the harm. Forgiveness helps you to go on with your life in a healthier way. Forgiving yourself is the first step of Self-love, Self-care, and Self-acceptance. You embrace your Truthfully.

Heartsong Counselling
Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor
Forgiveness can feel out of reach when the hurt runs deep. In our work together, you stay at the center of your healing while I walk beside you, offering steadiness as you sort through what feels too heavy to hold alone. With a gentle, intuitive approach grounded in transpersonal counselling, IFS, and Jungian influences, we move at your pace toward clarity, compassion, and a sense of inner freedom.

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.

Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
I view forgiveness not as excusing someone’s harmful behavior, but as a way to release oneself from the heavy burden of resentment. I guide clients to first fully acknowledge and process their anger and pain, rather than forcing forgiveness prematurely. True forgiveness often grows from recognizing the pain or trauma that shaped the person who caused harm, which can ease judgment while honoring one’s own experience.

It can be very hard to foregive and often we get 'stuck' in the cycle of anger and regret, often with ourselves. Together we explore how to get 'unstuck'.

Rosemary Laurel
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
As I've explored the idea and act of forgiveness, I've come to feel that the energy of forgiveness is akin to compassion. It's not saying that whatever happened was ok, and it's not saying that you're open to it ever happening again. But it's a journey towards finding compassion. And from compassion, forgiveness is possible. Not to benefit them, but so you can let go of the harm to yourself that you're carrying around with all the anger and hurt. You can find peace, and with that peace comes your own protection of your energy.

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.

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.

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.

Jacqueline Limoges
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC, CT, RCC
Working with forgiveness as a foundation for healthy lifestyle change means embracing compassionate accountability: learning to release past self-judgment and regret so you can make conscious, sustainable choices that support your physical, emotional and mental wellbeing. Through guided reflection and practical tools, you’ll transform guilt into motivation, rebuild self-trust, and develop daily habits—nutrition, movement, sleep and stress management—that honour your worth and fuel lasting progress. This approach empowers you to move forward with confidence, resilience and a clear sense of purpose, turning past setbacks into stepping stones for a healthier, more vibrant life.

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.
