Chicago, Illinois therapist: Merrisa Dawn Santos, licensed professional counselor
Forgiveness

Merrisa Dawn Santos

Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In helping patients struggling with forgiveness, I provide a supportive and nonjudgmental space for them to explore their feelings and experiences. Through therapy, we work together to understand the root causes of their struggles with forgiveness, such as past traumas or deeply held beliefs. I offer techniques and strategies to help them process their emotions, including mindfulness, journaling, and guided imagery. We also explore the concept of empathy, helping patients understand the perspective of the person who wronged them. Together, we identify and challenge any barriers to forgiveness, such as resentment or fear of vulnerability. My goal is to empower patients to find their own path to forgiveness, whether it involves reconciliation or simply letting go of negative emotions and moving forward with their lives.

Forgiveness

Forgiveness is often misunderstood as something we do for someone else. It's not-it is for us. And there is much more to it than just saying "I forgive them." Call to talk over what, who, and why you want to forgive.

Chicago, Illinois therapist: Patrick R. Gunderson, Ph.D., PLLC, psychologist
Forgiveness

Patrick R. Gunderson, Ph.D., PLLC

Psychologist, PhD
As my doctoral dissertation focused on forgiveness, I consider myself a specialist in this area of psychology. Forgiveness is a difficult process to navigate, and it is especially challenging when we need to forgive ourselves. I can help in developing acceptance and understanding, resolving associated guilt and self-blame, and improving relationships with others and yourself.

Forgiveness can be one of the most difficult—and freeing—parts of healing. I help clients process hurt, anger, and betrayal at their own pace, exploring what forgiveness truly means while honoring boundaries, emotional safety, and personal values.

Palm Beach Gardens, Florida therapist: Marc Feinberg, pastoral counselor/therapist
Forgiveness

Marc Feinberg

Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, CBC
"Forgiveness Equals Freedom". Forgiveness isn’t about excusing the past — it’s about freeing yourself from it. Holding on to pain keeps you chained to what hurt you, but letting go invites peace, healing, and renewal. True forgiveness doesn’t say, “It was okay.” It says, “I’m ready to move forward.” Through faith, courage, and compassion, you can release resentment and reclaim your joy. God’s grace reminds us that we are forgiven so we can forgive — not because others deserve it, but because we deserve peace. Forgiveness is the bridge between pain and freedom — and it begins with your choice today.
