Manhattan, New York therapist: Daniel Pagano, licensed psychoanalyst
Forgiveness

Daniel Pagano

Licensed Psychoanalyst, PhD, LP, SCC
Forgiveness is a profound act of reclaiming energy trapped in resentment and unconscious projection. By understanding the shadow dynamics that bind you, we facilitate a spiritual release from the cycle of grievance, restoring psychic wholeness, and allowing you to move forward with a lighter heart and clearer vision. We view forgiveness not as condoning harm, but as an alchemical process turning bitterness into wisdom. It is a spiritual practice detaching from the ego's demand for retribution, clearing the way for your soul to heal, and transforming wounds into deep compassion and inner liberty. True forgiveness often begins internally, by softening the inner critic and accepting your own humanity. From a Jungian view, this clears debris blocking your connection to the Self. Cultivating this inner grace naturally extends outward, resolving conflicts and fostering peace.

Brooklyn, New York therapist: Jenn Coonce, licensed psychoanalyst
Forgiveness

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.

Scarsdale, New York therapist: Michael Nakhla, psychiatrist
Forgiveness

Michael Nakhla

Psychiatrist, MD
Forgiveness is a complex process that's often misunderstood—it's not about condoning harmful behavior but about freeing yourself from the weight of resentment. I help clients explore what forgiveness means for them personally and work through the emotional barriers that keep them stuck in anger or hurt. Through this therapeutic process, many find greater peace and the ability to move forward unburdened by the past.

Manhattan is one of the most therapist-dense places in the world, with independent practices concentrated on the Upper West Side, in Chelsea, Midtown, and the East Village, serving an extraordinarily high per-capita demand for mental health care. The borough's concentration of finance, media, law, and healthcare professionals generates consistent demand for therapists experienced with high-stakes careers, perfectionism, and the emotional costs of extreme professional ambition. Manhattan also serves as the entry point for many immigrants from Latin America, Southeast Asia, and West Africa, and multilingual therapists make up a significant portion of the local clinical community. Columbia University Irving Medical Center, NYU Langone, and numerous academic training clinics provide institutional anchors and training pipelines for the borough's large private practice ecosystem.
