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.

Dawning of a New Day Counseling & Coaching
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSCSW, LCSW, CCP, CCTP, SAP
Holding on to unforgiveness mostly hurts the one stuck in the place of unforgiving. Let me help you learn how to explore the events that lead to your being hurt/betrayed and move on in your life with a clear conscience.

Iam Jophiel, LCSW, SEP, CPAT, CCTP-II
Therapist, @ Balanced Life Counseling & Consulting
Forgiveness can be a challenging but transformative journey, especially when it feels like you’re stuck. I support you in cultivating forgiveness—whether for yourself or others—by creating a safe space for exploration, emotional release, and healing. Through somatic practices, mindfulness, and compassionate guidance, I help you navigate the complex emotions around forgiveness, empowering you to take that first step toward freedom, inner peace, and renewal.

Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I help clients work through resentment, anger, guilt, betrayal, and the emotional weight of unresolved hurt. Forgiveness does not mean excusing harmful behavior or forcing yourself to move on before you are ready. In therapy, we focus on understanding what happened, processing the emotional impact, clarifying boundaries, and deciding what healing looks like for you. My goal is to help clients move forward with greater clarity, self-respect, and emotional freedom.

Columbia is home to the University of Missouri, the flagship state university, as well as several other colleges, giving it a pronounced college-town character and a mental health landscape significantly shaped by the needs of a large and diverse student population navigating academic pressure, identity, and the transition to adulthood. The MU School of Health Professions and Missouri Psychiatric Center contribute to the city's mental health professional resources, and a well-developed private therapy sector serves both the university community and permanent residents. The city has a generally progressive and intellectually engaged culture with a positive attitude toward therapy, and LGBTQ+ affirmative care is more accessible here than in many other parts of Missouri. Common therapy concerns include student mental health, academic and identity stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and the particular experiences of a university community navigating complex social terrain in a politically divided state.
