Dr. Shelley Sommerfeldt
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Forgiveness is a powerful and difficult process, whether you’re working to forgive others in your life or yourself.

Through guided support, we’ll work toward letting go of the past and creating space for peace, growth, and healthier relationships.

Full Being Services
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LPC, LCSW, LAPC
we approach forgiveness as a personal and deeply intentional process—not a demand, timeline, or moral obligation. For many people, conversations about forgiveness are complicated by trauma, betrayal, family harm, or systemic injustice. Our work honors these realities while supporting clients in defining what forgiveness truly means for them.
We help individuals explore the emotional impact of hurt, resentment, and unresolved pain, while developing pathways toward release, boundary-setting, and self-compassion. Forgiveness in therapy may—or may not—include reconciliation. The focus is on restoring agency, emotional freedom, and inner peace, without minimizing harm or bypassing accountability.
Forgiveness counseling at Full Being Services is trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and paced with care—supporting healing that is grounded, empowering, and aligned with your values and lived experience.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
Forgiveness is a loaded word. I'm not interested in telling you who to forgive, or how. But if you find yourself focused on the events surrounding a specific person, there might be some survival energy, emotional or physical, tied into that situation.
Using Somatic Experiencing to express and move that survival response so you feel safe again can help you 'un-fixate' from that person...and some may call that forgiveness. I prefer the term 'moving on', but we all have different language for this kind of thing.

Elana Blumenthal
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Holding on to gripes, and holding grudges can also be corrosive to us internally. Part of having a fuller, more expansive life often means forgiving those who have wronged us in our lives.

Dr. David Leibovitz
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Forgiveness is a choice we make. In counseling, you can work toward freedom from pain as you begin to let go of hostility and resentment - all in the name of becoming unstuck yourself. Maybe you are ready to set yourself free?

Cara Capasso-Murray, Nourishing Hope Psychotherapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, MA, NCC
In counseling, working on forgiveness means exploring the impact of past experiences, understanding the emotions that arise, and developing compassion—for yourself and, when possible, for others. This process is deeply personal and does not happen overnight.
Together, we create space to honor your pain, build insight, and work toward release at your own pace. Forgiveness is not about condoning what happened; it’s about reclaiming your energy, healing, and choosing a path that supports your well-being.

Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Forgiveness is about loss and grief. Often people want to approach this as if it's just something we can do and move on. In therapy you'll learn what is keeping you stuck, how to talk about what you lost, and ways to begin moving though those difficult feelings.

ANEW Christian Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MTS, MSW, LCSW
We all experience hurt in life at the hand of others, but some of us experience devastating blows that seem to paralyze us and resurfaces over and over again. As a result we find ourselves battling unforgiveness, bitterness and resentment. Someone once said that unforgiveness is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die. Forgiveness is freeing. Through forgiveness therapy I help usher my clients down the path of healing and wholeness to freedom from the grip of unforgiveness. This freedom enables them to reclaim their power, their voice and their peace so they can move forward.
16 Years Experience
Online in Newark, NJ
Newark is one of the most economically and culturally complex cities in the northeastern United States — a majority Black and Latino city with deep roots in jazz, civil rights history, and a long experience of disinvestment — and its therapy community frequently addresses the intersection of systemic inequity, racial trauma, and the psychological effects of urban poverty. The city has a significant Portuguese and Brazilian community alongside long-established African American and Puerto Rican populations, and multilingual and culturally affirming therapists serve critical access roles in a city where language and cultural barriers remain significant. Rutgers New Jersey Medical School provides institutional training and resources, while University Hospital Newark anchors the city's clinical mental health infrastructure. Newark's proximity to New York City means some residents also access therapy across the Hudson, while a growing independent therapy community has developed within the city itself.
