Elisha S Lee
Counselor/Therapist, NCCA CTCC CPC
Forgiveness counseling is a transformative process that facilitates the release of resentment, anger, and hurt that often maintains a hold on one's emotional well-being. Our services in this area focus on assisting clients as they navigate the complex path toward forgiving others and, equally importantly, themselves. This journey can pave the way for healing, inner peace, and the restoration of fractured relationships.
Fostering Compassion and Peace Through Forgiveness
* Understanding Forgiveness: We begin by exploring the true meaning of forgiveness, debunking myths, and setting realistic expectations about what forgiveness does and does not entail.
* Addressing Emotional Pain: A safe and empathetic space for clients to express and work through the emotional pain that has inhibited their ability to forgive, fostering a deeper understanding of their own feelings and experiences.
* Personal Empowerment: Forgiveness is framed as a choice and an act of personal empowerment, rather than a sign of weakness or an obligation to others.
* Letting Go of Harmful Attachments: Counseling focuses on helping individuals let go of negative attachments to past events and the people who have caused them harm, enabling them to reclaim their mental and emotional freedom.
* Reconciliation versus Release: We help clients discern between reconciliation—a restored relationship with the one who wronged them—and release, which is to free oneself from the burden of unresolved hurt.
Goals of Forgiveness Counseling
Our forgiveness counseling aims to assist clients in:
* Processing and Accepting Hurtful Events: Acknowledge and accept the reality of what happened in order to move forward.
* Liberating from the Past: Break free from the anchor of past hurts that impede current happiness and emotional wellness.
* Enhancing Personal Growth: Use the process of forgiveness as a catalyst for personal growth and self-improvement.
* Healing Emotional Wounds: Begin to heal the emotional wounds inflicted by others or oneself.
* Restoring Inner Peace: Achieving a sense of inner peace, regardless of whether the relationship with the offender is reconciled.
The act of forgiveness can be a profoundly liberating experience that goes far beyond mending relationships with others—it's an act of healing for oneself. Our skilled therapists are dedicated to guiding you through the emotional complexities of forgiveness, empowering you to let go of the past and embrace a more peaceful, fulfilling future. Connect with us to explore how forgiveness counseling can be a vital step in your personal journey of healing and growth.

Dr. Mike Lee
Psychologist
I help individuals approach forgiveness with care—honoring both what was hurt and what must be protected. The work is depth-informed and collaborative: we study what is happening above and beneath the surface, give language to injury and accountability, and translate that clarity into workable steps. The aim is durable change—less bitterness and self-criticism, more freedom and choice, and relationships that can repair with trust and self-respect intact.

Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hey Survivor, are you tired of feeling guilty and overwhelmed all the time? Everyone else seems so together and you're stuck battling your past? I get it. My name is Rebecca Castle-Waller and I help badass women with trauma become present in their lives and in their relationships, so you can actually enjoy this life you've built.
Many of my clients grew up in chaotic and unstable homes where from a young age they started taking care of others. Making meals, waking their parents up for work, getting their siblings off to school. From there, you went on to take care of your partner and your kiddos while also working hard to keep everything running smoothly. Now with work and relationships and family drama and life you feel constantly stressed out and like you should be doing more. Oh, and you're doing all of this while facing nightmares, flashbacks, numbness, random waves of anger, and the like. Who's taking care of you?
Let's give you a space where you can be your messy, imperfect self so you can finally take care of you. It's time to heal your trauma, you've built an amazing life and you deserve to actually live it.

Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
It is so easy to hold on to anger, resentment, self-criticism, rage, guilt, shame, and negative views of ourselves and others, yet all the research suggests that letting go and engaging in forgiveness is the healthiest solution for the one who forgives. It is hard to learn to forgive the self and others, but I believe we are all capable of working through that which keeps us stuck in the painful feelings and moving to a place of forgiveness.

Holding onto hurt, resentment, or guilt can feel heavy and exhausting. Whether it’s about something someone else did or something you’re struggling to forgive in yourself, these feelings can impact your relationships and overall well-being. I help teens and young adults work through these experiences at their own pace, making space for understanding, self-compassion, and healing. Forgiveness doesn’t mean forgetting—it means finding a way to move forward with greater peace and clarity.

Shannon Gorres
Life Coach, MDiv, MA
Whether you got betrayed or did something to hurt someone else, approaching forgiveness is not easy. There are complex factors involved, including our personal histories and the current context of the situation. Sometimes taking responsibility looks differently than we first thought, and that too can be hard to accept. When we approach forgiveness with respect for ourselves and the other person, we can approach it with dignity. Humans mess up, and humans can make amends or repair what's possible to repair. We can forgive without returning to the same situation. We can forgive and need to address the issue again later, from another layer or standpoint. Forgiveness is a process, that hopefully results- after addressing harm or hurt thoroughly- in feeling lighter, freer, and happier.
