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
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
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.

Forgiveness
David Gumpert
Psychologist, PsyD
While forgiveness does not mean what happened to you in the past was ok, it can free you up from holding onto anger, resentment, or hope that interfering with living fully. Forgiveness highlights our core values that felt violated, allowing us to see other valued areas in our lives that are being neglected. It is possible to forgive while still having healthy boundaries, whether it is from your past or present.

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.
