Forgiveness
Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
A friend of mine once said that not forgiving is like holding hot coals in your hands, threatening to throw them at someone, when all you get is burned hands -- better to drop the coals, through forgiveness, than keep getting burned. Forgiveness is for you, not the other person. It relieves you of the burden of carrying anger and resentment toward another, or even yourself. Forgiving yourself or another person can be very healing. Their response to you forgiving them can be a bonus, but it isn't necessary, as proven by the fact that we can forgive people who are no longer alive.

Forgiveness
Shirley Johnson,
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CYT
Forgiveness is not forced positivity — it’s a process. Together we explore hurt, accountability, and boundaries so that release becomes empowering, not self-abandoning. We always start with the self.

Forgiveness
Shohreh Schmuecker
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Forgiveness is not about forgetting or excusing what happened. It is about releasing the burden of pain, resentment, or anger that may be holding you back. Whether you are struggling to forgive someone else or yourself, the process can feel complicated and deeply emotional.
In a safe and supportive space, I help individuals explore what forgiveness means to them, process the hurt they carry, and move toward emotional freedom at their own pace. Forgiveness is a process and can be a powerful step toward healing and peace.
If you are ready to release what no longer serves you and create space for peace and self-compassion, I invite you to get in touch.

Forgiveness
Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
Forgiveness is a loaded word. I'm not interested in telling you who to forgive, or how. But if you find yourself focused on the events surrounding a specific person, there might be some survival energy, emotional or physical, tied into that situation.
Using Somatic Experiencing to express and move that survival response so you feel safe again can help you 'un-fixate' from that person...and some may call that forgiveness. I prefer the term 'moving on', but we all have different language for this kind of thing.

Forgiveness
Marcelle Little
Marriage and Family Therapist, MPH, MA
Though forgiveness is a broad term, I focus more on the restoration of love, in which attention is drawn toward acceptance. When we are able to accept everything "as it is" ranging from dysfunctional family systems to toxic intimate relationships this quality restores love for our life's path. From the state of acceptance we are empowered to take action and release ourselves from the entanglement with perpetrator and allow for the responsibility to rest on them.
