Forgiveness
LaTianna Williams, Therapy, Sexology, and Holistic Tantra
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CTRS, ABS
Forgiveness: Holding onto anger, resentment, or unresolved hurt can keep you emotionally tied to painful experiences long after they have occurred. Whether you’re struggling to forgive someone else or yourself, the weight of unresolved pain can affect your relationships, emotional well-being, and peace of mind.
I help clients explore the complexities of forgiveness in a way that honors their experiences and boundaries. Together, we’ll process difficult emotions, find meaning in what you’ve endured, and create space for healing.
Forgiveness is not about excusing harmful behavior. It’s about freeing yourself from the burden of carrying pain that no longer serves you.

Forgiveness
Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Forgiveness is the glue that makes relationship possible. Without forgiveness, there is no possibility of relationship, without it there is simply the pullling away, putting up walls, and isolating. If we want to be healthy relationally, we don't have a choice, we have to live in a posture of forgiveness. It frees us from the power of that moment or event over our own life and allows us to move towards relationship with others who also engage the principle of forgiveness in their life.

Forgiveness
Timothy Weymann
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (L.C.S.W.)
Forgiveness can be one of the most complex and personal parts of healing. When desired, I help clients explore forgiveness in a way that feels authentic and empowering—not pressured or forced. Whether you are working toward forgiving someone else, setting boundaries while letting go of resentment, or learning to forgive yourself, our work centers on clarity, self-compassion, and emotional freedom. Together, we process the hurt, anger, and grief that may be beneath the surface. Using research-informed approaches, we examine the meaning of what happened, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and create space for difficult emotions without being overwhelmed by them. Forgiveness, when it is chosen, in not about excusing behavior and more about releasing what no longer serves you. My role is to provide a steady, compassionate space where you can move at your own pace—toward peace, self-respect, and a renewed sense of power over your life and direction.

Forgiveness
Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
The real purpose of forgiveness is to protect your own emotional and physical health by freeing you from anger, stress and negative thinking. It is more for you than it is for anyone else, and has nothing to do with regarding what happened as okay. You can still regret, disapprove of or feel devastated by what happened. And you can create the boundaries that are necessary for you to thrive and avoid further suffering. Forgiveness involves establishing a sense of peace and radical acceptance, acknowledging that past unjust events are unchangeable. And this frees you to move forward into new chapters and experiences. Self-forgiveness can free you from pointless persistent guilt and self-loathing. Forgiveness towards others can make relationship repair possible, if that is something you choose. More importantly it can limit the ongoing harm done to you by holding onto anger, resentfulness or guilt and replaying painful memories. I combine insightful, caring depth work with evidence based techniques that are most effective in freeing you from old patterns, anger, trauma and pain, and helping you to reclaim the balanced, happy life you deserve.

Long Beach is home to one of the largest Cambodian-American communities in the world — concentrated in the Cambodian Cultural District near Anaheim Street — creating significant demand for therapists with expertise in intergenerational trauma, refugee experience, and the psychological legacy of the Khmer Rouge genocide. The city also has large Latino and Black populations, a growing young professional community, and one of the busiest commercial ports in North America, with maritime and logistics workers forming part of its occupational therapy clientele. MemorialCare Long Beach Medical Center and the Long Beach VA Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, with a private practice community serving Belmont Shore, Bixby Knolls, and the East Side. Long Beach's diverse, working-class identity gives its therapy community a distinct character compared to its wealthier South Bay neighbors.
