Aria Fraser
Hypnotherapist, Certified Rapid Transformational Therapist
Every person is going to be hurt by someone else at some point in life. If a memory of hurt from another arises during a Rapid Transformational Therapy session, forgiveness or releasing can be included and be very beneficial for the person. However, they will not be compelled to forgive their hurter at that time, because it is every person's own right to choose when. It is encouraged to try to forgive at some future point, because it will help them heal. If it's a case where the person having the session is the one who caused hurt, there will be no judgment; they will be assisted in healing from and letting go of the guilt that it caused.

Dr. Jessica Shine
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdD, LPC
I help individuals navigate the complex journey of forgiveness—whether it's forgiving themselves, someone who hurt them, or processing the pain of betrayal and unresolved wounds. Together, we explore what forgiveness truly means, work through the emotions that keep clients feeling stuck, and foster healing in a way that honors their experiences without minimizing the harm they've endured. My approach emphasizes healthy boundaries, emotional freedom, and reclaiming peace rather than simply moving on.

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.

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.

Baton Rouge is home to Louisiana State University and serves as Louisiana's state capital, creating a therapy community shaped by student mental health demand, the pressures of government and healthcare careers, and the particular stressors of a Deep South city navigating racial and economic inequity. The city's African American community — which comprises roughly half the population — drives strong demand for culturally affirming therapists who work with racial trauma, community resilience, and the psychological weight of systemic inequity. Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center and Ochsner Health provide institutional mental health resources, while LSU's psychology programs supply clinical training to the local community. Baton Rouge's location in a high-flood-risk region means climate-related anxiety and disaster recovery are recurring themes that local therapists address alongside individual concerns.
