The Mindful Life with Lori Kahn

Mindfulness practices are foundational in learning to forgive ourselves and others. With coaching around the roots of suffering that make us resentful and unable to forgive we find that the feelings of hurt are workable. We can all learn to forgive and it starts with us!

Forgiveness is a process and it is a good idea for you and your partner to find full closure with a professional therapist rather than "sweep things under the rug" . Let me help you understand and more deeply understand "the elephant in the room."

Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Forgiveness is a deeply personal process, not an obligation, an excuse for harmful behavior, or a requirement to reconcile. It can mean releasing the emotional burden of resentment, guilt, or pain so the past no longer controls your present.
I help clients explore forgiveness at their own pace, with respect for their experiences, boundaries, and readiness. Together, we work toward self-compassion, emotional freedom, and acceptance, whether that involves forgiving another person, forgiving yourself, or simply choosing peace without minimizing what happened.

Forgiveness is one of the hardest things to do. When we have been wronged, there is a desire for justice, and a desire to protect ourselves from future hurts. I walk with people to help them forgive and heal from the wounds that were caused by others

Dr Pamela Helen Polcyn
Marriage and Family Therapist, Phd, MFT
Forgiveness is an essential part of regaining wholeness and purpose in your life. Blame can keep you stuck and feeling disempowered. This process does not mean condoning inappropriate behavior. It is meant to facilitate growth and freedom in your life.

Advent Christian Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT (R.N.-retired)
Forgiveness is among the most difficult and most liberating steps in the Christian life. Whether you are struggling to extend forgiveness to someone who has wounded you deeply, or you carry the weight of guilt and need to receive God's forgiveness yourself, I will guide you through the process with Biblical wisdom and patient support. This is not a matter of haste — it is a matter of allowing God to accomplish genuine healing in your heart.
