Forgiveness
Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
Forgiveness is often misunderstood as a requirement for healing, but I believe it is a deeply personal choice. Drawing on over 15 years of experience working with survivors of complex trauma and abuse, I understand that for some, choosing not to forgive is a vital act of self-protection and boundary-setting.
In our work, there is no pressure to reach a state of forgiveness to 'earn' your peace. Instead, we focus on helping your 'parts' find relief from the burden of the past. Whether you choose to forgive or you choose to hold your boundary, my goal is to help you move toward a life of clarity and internal stability—free from the judgment of others and the weight of old wounds.

Forgiveness
Cayla Townes, Memento Psychotherapy & Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC
Forgiveness can have a lot of different meanings depending on who you talk to. I believe forgiveness is about being able to acknowledge that someone has hurt us, but not letting that hurt dictate how we think, act, or feel. This can be an incredibly difficult place to get to depending on how we were hurt. I work with people on acknowledging the hurt, processing how it has affected them, figuring out how this hurt affects their lives now, and how to move forward in a way that honours their pain while beginning to heal it.

Forgiveness
David McAlinden
Pre-Licensed Professional, MACP Candidate, Yorkville University
Forgiveness can be complicated, especially when hurt, resentment, disappointment, or guilt have been carried for a long time. Sometimes forgiveness is connected to other people, while other times it involves learning how to let go of anger toward yourself, make peace with the past, or move forward from experiences that still feel emotionally heavy.
I provide a supportive, non-judgmental space where we can explore these experiences openly and honestly, without pressure to “just move on” before you’re ready. Together, we can work toward understanding, healing, and finding a way forward that feels genuine and meaningful to you.

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.

Forgiveness
Nicklas Ehrlich
Counsellor/Therapist, MSW, RCC (#0843), RSW (#11561), Psychotherapist, Counsellor, Life-Coach, Hypnotherapist, Advanced Neurofeedback Trainer
Forgive the person and not the behaviour while still having healthy boundaries and not allowing abuse to continue. When people violate in various ways they are acting from their unconscious wounds and anxieties and are not healthy to be around. Lack of forgiveness negatively affects your health.

Forgiveness
Rosemary Laurel
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
As I've explored the idea and act of forgiveness, I've come to feel that the energy of forgiveness is akin to compassion. It's not saying that whatever happened was ok, and it's not saying that you're open to it ever happening again. But it's a journey towards finding compassion. And from compassion, forgiveness is possible. Not to benefit them, but so you can let go of the harm to yourself that you're carrying around with all the anger and hurt. You can find peace, and with that peace comes your own protection of your energy.

Heartsong Counselling
Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor
Forgiveness can feel out of reach when the hurt runs deep. In our work together, you stay at the center of your healing while I walk beside you, offering steadiness as you sort through what feels too heavy to hold alone. With a gentle, intuitive approach grounded in transpersonal counselling, IFS, and Jungian influences, we move at your pace toward clarity, compassion, and a sense of inner freedom.

Vancouver's extreme housing affordability crisis has become a defining mental health issue, with therapists frequently addressing financial stress, housing precarity, and the grief of displacement from a city many can no longer afford to stay in. The city's large East Asian community — particularly its Chinese, Korean, Filipino, and South Asian populations — drives demand for culturally fluent therapists who can navigate family dynamics, immigration stress, and the intersection of cultural expectations with individual wellbeing. BC Mental Health & Substance Use Services provides institutional support, while Vancouver's large private therapy community is concentrated in Kitsilano, Mount Pleasant, Commercial Drive, and the West End. BC's expanded telehealth access makes it easier to connect with therapists across the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley.
