Dr. Tuvia Hoffman
Psychologist, Psychologist, PhD
Forgiveness can be a powerful path to healing and emotional freedom, yet it often feels complex and elusive. I specialize in guiding individuals through the process of forgiveness, whether it’s forgiving others or oneself. Using evidence-based techniques, I help clients explore the underlying emotions and barriers to forgiveness. Together, we work on understanding and releasing resentment, building empathy, and fostering a sense of inner peace. My goal is to support you in finding resolution and moving forward with a renewed sense of emotional well-being and personal empowerment.

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.

Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I approach forgiveness as a central aspect of healing, drawing upon psychological insights and Christian teachings. Recognizing forgiveness as a transformative and freeing process, I integrate biblical principles on forgiveness, love, and grace into therapy sessions. Emphasizing the example of Christ's forgiveness, I encourage clients to explore their faith and find strength in extending forgiveness to others and themselves. The therapeutic process may involve prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on the importance of forgiveness in the Christian journey. I guide individuals in understanding the relational and emotional benefits of forgiveness while addressing any barriers that may hinder the process. This integrative approach seeks to help clients navigate the complexities of forgiveness, fostering emotional healing and reconciliation within the framework of their Christian beliefs.

Jason Holland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Forgiveness is not a simple decision, and it does not mean excusing what happened. We can take a thoughtful approach that respects your values and your boundaries. Sometimes the goal is forgiveness, and sometimes it is clarity and release. Either way, the work is about loosening the hold of the past so you can move forward with more peace and self-respect.

Forgiveness might be difficult especially if there have been injustices and hurt. If left to fester, unforgiveness might affect relationships and emotional, mental, behavioral, and physical health. Forgiveness is an important aspect of the self and others and might be a process for healing and well-being. If you are seeking to cross over into forgiveness and freedom, you may contact me to set your unique goals into peace.
