Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW, LCSW
Forgiveness isn't pretending something didn't hurt, and it isn't something you can force. I help clients understand what forgiveness means for them, whether that's toward a partner, a family member, or themselves. We make room for the anger and grief first, then explore what letting go might look like. Sometimes that leads to reconciliation. Sometimes it means finding peace while keeping healthy boundaries.

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.

Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
At the heart of all healing is forgiveness, and it is a cornerstone of my therapy. Almost all issues clients come to me for involve some form of need for forgivness. Together, we get there, through hypnosis, childhood regression, breathwork, parts work (IFS, Gestalt), EMT, past life regression, and more frameworks, as needed. The childhood regression has a beautiful forgiveness and compassion formula built-in, and clients often report how much lighter they feel after being safely guided through this ceremonious framework. When we forgive, we let go of huge energetic blocks that seriously impede our bandwidth. By lifting these giant boulders off our backs, we literally free up so much life force energy we can use again to move forward in life. Stop self-sabotage. Remember, you can forgive but you do not have to excuse the behavior. Come out stronger and wiser when you decide you have suffered enough and you are ready to liberate yourself.

"Revenge is a kiss. This time I won't miss." That's only in James Bond's movies. When you forgive, you feel peace and you can start again. I will help you forgive and heal by hypnotherapy. Later, I will help you become a new you. Life is too short to lead an unforgiving life.
Hypnotherapy is considered an effective tool for facilitating forgiveness by addressing subconscious emotional baggage and releasing deeply held resentment or anger. It helps individuals move past lingering negativity, offering techniques to process pain, reduce self-criticism, and foster self-compassion and forgive whoever hurt you.
