Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
Drawing upon my extensive experience in working with clients, I've observed that forgiveness is a profound and transformative journey for individuals seeking emotional healing. In my therapeutic approach, I employ EMDR therapy as a powerful tool to guide you on this path to forgiveness. Recognizing that the journey towards forgiveness begins with processing the events that have contributed to your emotional wounds, we delve deep into the core beliefs about yourself that have sprouted from these experiences.
Throughout my work with clients, I emphasize several fundamental principles about forgiveness. Firstly, it's essential to understand that forgiveness doesn't imply agreement with or condoning of the actions that have caused you harm. It also doesn't necessitate allowing the same hurt to be inflicted upon you again. It is possible to forgive and not forget. It is also possible to forgive without ever reconciling with the person who harmed you, as forgiveness is created and achieved for your own personal peace and well-being.
Forgiveness is not a one-time event; it is a process that unfolds through stages. In our therapeutic journey together, we explore the "why" behind your desire to forgive, which serves as a powerful catalyst for determining the "how." This process allows us to navigate the complexities of forgiveness with clarity and purpose, ultimately paving the way for emotional liberation and healing.

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.

Forgiveness often involves grief and I use Elisabeth Kübler-Ross' model of Grief or Healing (i.e., Denial - Anger - Bargaining - Depression - Acceptance) to explore what my preventing acceptance (i.e., fortgiveness).

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.

Lincoln is home to the University of Nebraska and serves as Nebraska's state capital, giving it a demographic character — young, educated, and government-oriented — that generates consistent demand for therapists working with academic stress, young adult identity, and the pressures of public service careers. The city has a growing Sudanese, Somali, and Latino refugee and immigrant community that creates meaningful demand for culturally informed and multilingual therapists who work with resettlement stress and cross-cultural family dynamics. Bryan Health and CHI Health provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private practice community. Lincoln's relative affordability and tight-knit community character give it a therapy culture that values accessibility and practical, evidence-based approaches.
