Forgiveness
Farrah Bonde
Registered Social Worker, LISW
Therapy focused on forgiveness can help release feelings of anger resentment, or betrayal. Therapy can guide individuals through a journey of understanding, empathy, and self-compassion. Forgiveness can free oneself from the emotional burden of holding onto negative feelings. Therapy can help reframe your perception of the event or person you need to forgive, allowing a shift towards empowerment and peace.

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.

Forgiveness
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.

Forgiveness
Emily Hurlin
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.
