Debra Nelson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Forgiveness is not a destination, but a place to visit and spend time. When people are betrayed either by a friend, family member, romantic partner, or co-worker, the hurt is profound. Sometimes, as with someone who has passed, there is no opportunity to gain closure. Forgiveness work is about exploring your feelings, but also learning skills you can use to work through the pain and get to a place of acceptance.

Kelley Hopkins-Alvarez
Licensed Professional Counselor, Couples Therapy, Affair & Betrayal Recovery, Certified Sex Therapy, Certified Discernment Counselor
Forgiveness in a relationship does not mean excusing harmful behavior or moving forward before trust has been rebuilt. I help couples address withheld apologies, blame, recurring negative patterns, and serious breaches such as an affair, financial infidelity, or substance misuse. Through accountability, meaningful repair, and healthier boundaries, partners can determine what forgiveness means for them and whether a more secure relationship can be created.

Jenna Labbe-Watson
Psychologist, Psy. D.
Have you ever wanted to forgive someone and, from a cognitive place you kind of could get there, but your heart and your body are having none of that? Or maybe you don't want to forgive, cognitively or otherwise, but you do wonder what toll it takes on you to hold on to the grievance. I get it. Forgiveness can be fleeting or profound, intellectual or embodied. Together we can explore the layers that are here for you and allow different parts of you to respond the harm and the longing for peace. Sometimes there are emotional arcs that never were completed. From an affective neuroscience perspective, it's important to allow for that completion before moving on. I can support you in this journey.

Beth Clardy Lewis
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S
Forgiveness isn’t about excusing what happened — it’s about freeing yourself from what still hurts. I guide clients through a step-by-step process of emotional release, boundary setting, and internal healing. With years of clinical experience and published work on emotional resilience, I help you find clarity and closure. Together, we build a version of forgiveness that feels safe, authentic, and empowering.
