Forgiveness
Ida Uzelman
Counsellor/Therapist, MPCC-P, RTC
Forgiveness doesn’t mean that the abuse, hurt, or wrongdoing was okay—it means you choose not to let it hold you back. I provide a safe and compassionate space to process past pain, release anger and resentment, and reclaim your emotional freedom. Together, we work toward self-compassion, inner peace, and the ability to move forward without being defined or limited by past experiences.

Forgiveness
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.)

Meredith Bailey - Redefining Relationships
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, MACP, RP
Forgiveness is a topic we may explore in my practice, not a specialist credential or an expected outcome. Our work can make room for hurt, boundaries, and what moving forward means to you, with or without reconciliation.

Andrew Saliba
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC (Registration No. 11246757), APC (Registration No. 834ON24)
Struggling to forgive is rarely overcome by forcing yourself to "forgive and forget." Together we can process what's happened and the emotions the event has left you with. Though we cannot change the past, we can change how we feel about the past. Together we can work towards such change with patience, expertise, and self-acceptance.

Forgiveness
Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
I view forgiveness not as excusing someone’s harmful behavior, but as a way to release oneself from the heavy burden of resentment. I guide clients to first fully acknowledge and process their anger and pain, rather than forcing forgiveness prematurely. True forgiveness often grows from recognizing the pain or trauma that shaped the person who caused harm, which can ease judgment while honoring one’s own experience.
