Whether you're working through a betrayal, a rupture in a relationship, or something you're carrying toward yourself, we make space for the complexity of what forgiveness actually means for you.

I think forgiveness is much harder than people believe. It may take time to process and be ok with hurt or anger that you may have felt.

Julien Moe
Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
"Revenge is a kiss. This time I won't miss." That's only in James Bond's movies. When you forgive, you feel peace and you can start again. I will help you forgive and heal by hypnotherapy. Later, I will help you become a new you. Life is too short to lead an unforgiving life.
Hypnotherapy is considered an effective tool for facilitating forgiveness by addressing subconscious emotional baggage and releasing deeply held resentment or anger. It helps individuals move past lingering negativity, offering techniques to process pain, reduce self-criticism, and foster self-compassion and forgive whoever hurt 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.

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.

Forgiveness can be one of the most freeing—but also most challenging—steps in emotional and spiritual healing. Whether you are struggling to forgive yourself or someone else, unresolved hurt can keep you trapped in anger, resentment, or shame. In therapy, we help clients gently explore the pain, understand the impact of holding onto it, and work toward releasing it in a way that honors both their feelings and God’s truth. Through faith-informed guidance and practical therapeutic tools, forgiveness counseling supports healing, emotional freedom, and restoration—helping you experience peace, wholeness, and healthier relationships.

Forgiveness is not forced positivity — it’s a process. Together we explore hurt, accountability, and boundaries so that release becomes empowering, not self-abandoning. We always start with the self.

Amy Price, AMP Family Therapy Inc.
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Forgiveness is so important to mental health. People often mistake forgiveness for allowance of hurt, but this is not the case. Forgiveness is something we can do within ourselves and for ourselves, and between us and God.

Iva Taylor Hypnosisbloom Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapist, CHt. Certified Hypnotherapist, Life Coach
"Forgiveness is not about excusing harmful actions; it is a profound act of **Heart-Mind Coherence**. When unforgiveness (resentment, guilt, shame) is stored, it creates emotional stagnation that fuels anxiety and prevents focused action. As a specialist in subconscious alignment, I guide you to reclaim your power by releasing the energetic debt of the past. Through compassionate inquiry and guided techniques, we clear the heart's pathways, ensuring you create a future free from the constant burden of old wounds. True forgiveness is the path to achieving **Effortless Clarity** in the present.
Forgiveness is often misunderstood as condoning harmful actions. True forgiveness is an act of profound self-compassion, a way to reclaim your power and heal the wounds of the past. I offer a safe and supportive space to explore the process of forgiveness, both of yourself and others. Through guided techniques and compassionate inquiry, we'll work to release resentment, cultivate self-acceptance, and create a future free from the weight of unforgiveness."

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
I work with adults who are grappling with questions around forgiveness, including whether forgiveness is possible, appropriate, or even wanted. Difficulties around forgiveness often involve complex emotions such as anger, grief, guilt, loyalty, or fear of loss, and can be shaped by long-standing relational patterns.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to explore what forgiveness means in your specific context, without pressure toward resolution. Rather than assuming forgiveness as a goal, the focus is on understanding what has been held, protected, or avoided, and what feels truthful to you now. Sessions may involve conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both.
