Dr Pamela Helen Polcyn
Marriage and Family Therapist, Phd, MFT
Forgiveness is an essential part of regaining wholeness and purpose in your life. Blame can keep you stuck and feeling disempowered. This process does not mean condoning inappropriate behavior. It is meant to facilitate growth and freedom in your life.

Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
A friend of mine once said that not forgiving is like holding hot coals in your hands, threatening to throw them at someone, when all you get is burned hands -- better to drop the coals, through forgiveness, than keep getting burned. Forgiveness is for you, not the other person. It relieves you of the burden of carrying anger and resentment toward another, or even yourself. Forgiving yourself or another person can be very healing. Their response to you forgiving them can be a bonus, but it isn't necessary, as proven by the fact that we can forgive people who are no longer alive.

LaTianna Williams, Therapy, Sexology, and Holistic Tantra
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CTRS, ABS
Forgiveness: Holding onto anger, resentment, or unresolved hurt can keep you emotionally tied to painful experiences long after they have occurred. Whether you’re struggling to forgive someone else or yourself, the weight of unresolved pain can affect your relationships, emotional well-being, and peace of mind.
I help clients explore the complexities of forgiveness in a way that honors their experiences and boundaries. Together, we’ll process difficult emotions, find meaning in what you’ve endured, and create space for healing.
Forgiveness is not about excusing harmful behavior. It’s about freeing yourself from the burden of carrying pain that no longer serves you.

Kristin Robert
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
I approach forgiveness as a personal, often complex process, not a requirement or an endpoint of healing. Therapy focuses on helping clients clarify what forgiveness means to them, if at all, while prioritizing boundaries, self-respect, and emotional safety.

David Gumpert
Psychologist, PsyD
While forgiveness does not mean what happened to you in the past was ok, it can free you up from holding onto anger, resentment, or hope that interfering with living fully. Forgiveness highlights our core values that felt violated, allowing us to see other valued areas in our lives that are being neglected. It is possible to forgive while still having healthy boundaries, whether it is from your past or present.

Brett Ryan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #128956
Forgiveness is one of the hardest things to do. When we have been wronged, there is a desire for justice, and a desire to protect ourselves from future hurts. I walk with people to help them forgive and heal from the wounds that were caused by others

Jean-Marie Bottequin
Life Coach, WAPP
You write 7 letters to your conflict partner (even if he has already died) Each letter has a different topic.
In no case are the letters intended for the addressee or the writing of this letter to be mentioned!
On the day you come to our session, read the letters to me. Even twice! I do my energetic work. Then you burn the seven letters ritually, e.g. outside in the park and let the ashes flow away from the stream to the river ...
You should NOT have any copies, and if you do you should definitely burn this one.
I will explain everything and send you the sample.
With this method you will soon lose your anger, your sadness and can breathe again!

Shohreh Schmuecker
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Forgiveness is not about forgetting or excusing what happened. It is about releasing the burden of pain, resentment, or anger that may be holding you back. Whether you are struggling to forgive someone else or yourself, the process can feel complicated and deeply emotional.
In a safe and supportive space, I help individuals explore what forgiveness means to them, process the hurt they carry, and move toward emotional freedom at their own pace. Forgiveness is a process and can be a powerful step toward healing and peace.
If you are ready to release what no longer serves you and create space for peace and self-compassion, I invite you to get in touch.
