Kristen Jackson Banister
Counselor/Therapist, M.A. LPC SEP
Forgiveness is not about excusing harm or forcing yourself to bypass your feelings. It’s about freeing yourself from the ongoing weight of what happened. This process can involve processing anger, grief, and complex emotions. Together, we move at a pace that honors your experience, helping you process what remains unresolved so that you can reclaim your energy, clarity, and sense of agency.

Omni Mental Health, Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, LICSW, DBT IOP
At Omni Mental Health, we understand that forgiveness is a deeply personal journey, not a one-size-fits-all solution. While letting go of past hurts can be healing for some, we recognize that it may not be appropriate or possible for everyone. Our therapists offer a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore your feelings—whether that means working toward forgiveness, finding acceptance, or simply learning to live with the pain in a healthier way.
We support you in making choices that align with your values and emotional readiness, helping you regain a sense of peace and autonomy without pressure or expectation. Whether you’re navigating interpersonal conflict, self-blame, or trauma, we’re here to help you move forward on your own terms.

Forgiveness
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with adults who are carrying pain, anger, guilt, or unfinished emotional business from relationships that have been complicated or hurtful, including their relationship with themselves. Forgiveness is often misunderstood as excusing harm, minimizing what happened, or reconciling with someone who hurt you. In reality, many people come to therapy because they want relief from the internal weight of what happened and from the way they speak to themselves about it, not because they want to repair the relationship or “move on” before they are ready. You may feel torn between what you think you are supposed to feel and what you actually feel, or caught between loyalty, resentment, grief, and self‑protection. You might also feel stuck in self‑blame, replaying past choices and wishing you had done things differently.
People often seek this kind of work after emotional abuse, betrayal, estrangement, family conflict, or long histories of being the one who absorbs more than their share. These experiences can leave you questioning your reactions, doubting your worth, or feeling responsible for keeping the peace even when it costs you. Over time, the pressure to forgive, from others or from yourself, can create even more confusion, shame, and exhaustion.
In our work together, forgiveness is not a requirement or a destination. I am open to whatever feels most honest and supportive for you, whether that eventually includes forgiveness or not. The focus is on self‑forgiveness and inner relief. We explore what happened with clarity and compassion, how it has shaped your sense of self, and what you have been carrying alone. We make space for the parts of you that still feel hurt, protective, angry, or loyal, and the parts that long for softness and rest. The intention is to help you find a steadier, kinder way of relating to your own story, one that feels honest, grounded, and not dictated by pressure from others. If forgiveness, toward yourself or someone else, becomes part of that process, it can emerge naturally from understanding and self‑respect, not obligation.

Forgiveness
Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Forgiveness in relationships is deeply personal, and there is no one-size-fits-all definition of what it should look like. In Gottman Method couples therapy, partners are supported in exploring the meaning of forgiveness within the context of their own experiences, values, boundaries, and relationship goals. Therapy provides space to process hurt, rebuild emotional safety, and strengthen trust without pressure to move faster than feels authentic or "sweep things under the rug." Whether couples are working through betrayal, repeated conflict, or emotional wounds, the focus is on fostering understanding, taking responsibility, making amends, healing, and intentional reconnection in a way that is meaningful and lasting.

Dr. Danielle Goodwin
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Anger and depression may stem from lack of forgiveness of either others or self. We all have been hurt and may have difficulty with forgiving the unforgivable. We often forget that we all make mistakes and no human is perfect. Forgiveness can be difficult but is essential for healing as an individual and in relationships. Lets work on helping you to be able to give grace to others and yourself, so you can work on healing.

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
Drawing upon my extensive experience in working with clients, I've observed that forgiveness is a profound and transformative journey for individuals seeking emotional healing. In my therapeutic approach, I employ EMDR therapy as a powerful tool to guide you on this path to forgiveness. Recognizing that the journey towards forgiveness begins with processing the events that have contributed to your emotional wounds, we delve deep into the core beliefs about yourself that have sprouted from these experiences.
Throughout my work with clients, I emphasize several fundamental principles about forgiveness. Firstly, it's essential to understand that forgiveness doesn't imply agreement with or condoning of the actions that have caused you harm. It also doesn't necessitate allowing the same hurt to be inflicted upon you again. It is possible to forgive and not forget. It is also possible to forgive without ever reconciling with the person who harmed you, as forgiveness is created and achieved for your own personal peace and well-being.
Forgiveness is not a one-time event; it is a process that unfolds through stages. In our therapeutic journey together, we explore the "why" behind your desire to forgive, which serves as a powerful catalyst for determining the "how." This process allows us to navigate the complexities of forgiveness with clarity and purpose, ultimately paving the way for emotional liberation and healing.

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.

Natalie Campbell

"Myself, or someone else?" Good question. Maybe it's both. How do I know when I forgive...what if I cannot forgive? I'm hear to tell you that it's a process and neither is right or wrong.

Forgiveness
Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Forgiveness is one of the most misused words in the language. It gets deployed as a demand — as though the person who was hurt owes the one who hurt them a resolution. Real forgiveness, when it comes, is not a decision. It is something that happens when a person has been allowed to fully inhabit their anger, their grief, the reality of what was taken. You cannot skip to the end. The therapeutic work is in everything that comes before — the parts no one wants to stay with.
