Forgiveness
Molly Terry
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LMHC
Forgiveness therapy is powerful. It can be freeing and very cathartic to process through past wrongs. It leads to becoming the best version of yourself for yourself.

Forgiveness
Brittany Shannon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Forgiveness is often treated like a requirement for healing, but it’s more complicated than that. Many people are told they “need” to forgive in order to move forward, and when they can’t, it creates even more shame on top of what they’re already carrying. In reality, forgiveness is not a prerequisite for healing. In therapy, we focus on helping you sort through what forgiveness actually means to you, not what you’ve been told it should look like. If you decide that forgiveness is something you want to work toward for yourself, we absolutely do that. But the goal is not to force it. The goal is to help you process what happened and reduce the hold it has on your life, whether forgiveness becomes part of that or not.

Natalie Campbell
Psychologist, PsyD; LLC
"Myself, or someone else?" Good question. Maybe it's both. How do I know when I forgive...what if I cannot forgive? I'm hear to tell you that it's a process and neither is right or wrong.

Forgiveness
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with adults who are carrying pain, anger, guilt, or unfinished emotional business from relationships that have been complicated or hurtful, including their relationship with themselves. Forgiveness is often misunderstood as excusing harm, minimizing what happened, or reconciling with someone who hurt you. In reality, many people come to therapy because they want relief from the internal weight of what happened and from the way they speak to themselves about it, not because they want to repair the relationship or “move on” before they are ready. You may feel torn between what you think you are supposed to feel and what you actually feel, or caught between loyalty, resentment, grief, and self‑protection. You might also feel stuck in self‑blame, replaying past choices and wishing you had done things differently.
People often seek this kind of work after emotional abuse, betrayal, estrangement, family conflict, or long histories of being the one who absorbs more than their share. These experiences can leave you questioning your reactions, doubting your worth, or feeling responsible for keeping the peace even when it costs you. Over time, the pressure to forgive, from others or from yourself, can create even more confusion, shame, and exhaustion.
In our work together, forgiveness is not a requirement or a destination. I am open to whatever feels most honest and supportive for you, whether that eventually includes forgiveness or not. The focus is on self‑forgiveness and inner relief. We explore what happened with clarity and compassion, how it has shaped your sense of self, and what you have been carrying alone. We make space for the parts of you that still feel hurt, protective, angry, or loyal, and the parts that long for softness and rest. The intention is to help you find a steadier, kinder way of relating to your own story, one that feels honest, grounded, and not dictated by pressure from others. If forgiveness, toward yourself or someone else, becomes part of that process, it can emerge naturally from understanding and self‑respect, not obligation.
