Jason Powell
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CST
Forgiveness is not about forgetting - it’s about finding freedom from the weight of resentment and hurt. In therapy, we explore what forgiveness truly means for you: how to grieve what was lost, hold boundaries with integrity, and allow compassion to emerge without abandoning yourself. Whether you’re healing after infidelity, betrayal, or relational pain, this work helps restore clarity and steadiness - creating room for trust, grace, and emotional repair to take root again.

Jenn Coonce
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Licensed Psychoanalyst, New York State
Struggles with forgiving significant figures in your life can impede your happiness and ability to move forward. Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with the right therapist, you can learn how to work through your desire to forgive and move forward. You can understand what you can and can't control, and if any of your own behaviors and conflicts are contributing to your unhappiness. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, I believe anyone can learn to know themselves better and to get more of what they want from life.

This may include self-forgiveness or forgiveness of others, always at a pace that feels safe and without pressure or expectation to forgive before you are ready.

Liberation Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
Forgiveness is complicated and cannot be forced. In therapy, forgiveness is not about pretending something didn’t hurt or excusing harmful behavior. Instead, we explore what forgiveness might mean for you—whether that is letting go, setting boundaries, grieving, or finding a way to move forward without carrying the same weight.
