Julie Taylor Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, MTC, RCS
There is a lot of talk about forgiveness these days. A popular notion is that we must forgive if we want to move forward but I find this a little confusing? I think to forgive oneself is important. Mega important. To understand why we do the things we do - and why someone else did to us what they did to us - is also important. But... Is it really up to us to judge and forgive someone else for their actions? Do we have that responsibility? We can hear their apology if one is forthcoming. But our responsibility is to ourselves (and to our young children). I believe we are free to choose how we wish to move forward and create our life from this moment. We are each of us, as adults, responsible for our own actions. People who have hurt us in some way are responsible for themselves. If forgiving is important to us, we can explore that. However Dr Rosenberg said that in order to be happy we must get to know ourselves, understand our needs and arrange our lives so that those needs are met. Our loved ones will naturally benefit from our happiness. (Of course we should never hurt anyone physically either, other than in self defence.)

Forgiveness work starts with exploring every obstacle that is in the way of forgiveness, especially ourselves. This work would lead us to more self love and acceptance. I invite you to take the first step towards your freedom and more fulfilled life by reaching out for support.

When you've been deeply hurt, feelings of anger, resentment, and betrayal can feel overwhelming and difficult to let go of. Together, we'll work through these painful emotions, helping you process what happened, find healing, and move forward in a way that feels right for you whether or not forgiveness is part of your journey. My goal is to help you find peace, regain your emotional freedom, and ensure that your past no longer defines your present.

Simone Merkl Marriage Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RTC
Forgiveness can mean different things to different people depending on a person's situation or belief system. Finding meaning in painful experiences can help propel us to an even greater future or more joyful life. The human experience can bond us with others in a way we can only appreciate when we have made it through the fire of what it means to be human. Please feel free to contact me for a free 20-minute consultation today. I offer online sessions in Canada, BC. or in-person sessions in Langley or White Rock, BC.
