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.

Jay Shaw
Hypnotherapist, CHt (Certified Hypnotherapist)
Unforgiveness keeps the old identity running. Resentment, guilt, and unresolved hurt aren't just emotional they're wired into your nervous system and show up in how you perform, lead, and relate. Through Identity 2.0 hypnotherapy, I work at the subconscious level to neutralize the emotional charge attached to past events, freeing up the mental bandwidth high performers need to operate at full capacity.

Dr. Rosy Saenz-Sierzega
Psychologist, PhD, MA, NBCC
Forgiveness does not mean pretending something didn't happen or saying that what someone did was okay. I help clients work through anger, hurt, betrayal, and resentment and determine what forgiveness means for them—whether that involves repairing a relationship, establishing boundaries, or simply letting go of the emotional hold the situation has had on them.
